a tree in love

A tree in love By the old road, before it meets a widened way in a nearby stands two trees close together we can see they are related yes, mother and daughter The mother, although taller, leans on her daughter They are a refugee from a forest fire which they survived only to get the news all trees had to be chopped down to give space for a golf course. A night after much rain had made the soil soft, they got the roots up and moved along the land, near the road The hope was to meet a group of woods and seek sanctuary, but now, an impasse. The daughter said, we must let our roots grow under the road until it breaks down and traffic stops, and when the road is repaired, we can sneak over We have to move fast, in ten years' time , we should be able to cross. The two trees were well-liked in the forest hood not, complaining when birds made a racket in summer made the ground cool, for rabbits. They and moles, which usually made a home in trees' roots, went to work softening the oak the trees were trying to cross The foxes chipped in, promising not to hunt at that part, near the road, and warn other foxes to stay clear If you wonder why the foxes were friendly, because on a cold, foggy winter night, a fox was lost and hunted by dogs, an oak tree said come hide in my hollow, and that saved the fox's life that lived a long life, a wise reynard, other foxes went to see when they need advice. Everything was read in 10 or 15 years, the young tree and her friend she telepathically meet to entwine her roots with his, but her mother hesitated She, the old lady, was fond of the clearing near the main road, so, much more to see than being stuck in a forest She also claimed the afternoon sunlight was good for her bark, and her foliage was greener than before The moles and other burrowing animals sensed the young tree's distress and continued digging tunnels. Years later (three's time), a man with a new ax walked by the old tree, trying out the ax's sharpness chopped off a few tree branches and nodded to himself yes, it's sharp This incident was witnessed by the daughter, who woke up her mother, who had been asleep at the time and told her and said, we better move the mother poofoyed this and they continue to stay near the main road. Until the country had an economic collapse and people could not pay the heating bills The man with the sharp ax had a dream a horse with wings flew him to the clearing by the road, yes, he remembered that tree, the heating-the-house, problem was solved Rain began, and heavy rain lasted for weeks tilling the soil into a soggy mess and the tunnels generations of moles and rabbits had made, a section of the road collapsed Enabled the two trees to drag up their rots and sprint across the opening and settle in the middle of the forest where the daughter tree could mingle with her friend and mingling of roots could begin The country needed many workers to repair the road this was seen by the economists as the beginning of good times again, and strikes and civil war were avoided.
