Congratulations on your win, Greg. Aspen trees live in clones, all joined together underground by a single root. The largest living thing on earth. This senryu is awesome!

You know the biological fact that the indigenous people have passed along to us along with the Sweetgrass and Skyworld mythology. Few know this stuff and fewer appreciate its relevance and the insights it gives. Thanks so much.

Seems so "awkward" to congratulate you as well. I hope I did it gracefully.
