Memories of the Trees

Every tree has a million stories, encircled within its rings. Sentinels that see, hear, all are the guardians of Mother Nature; fed from her bosom, trees possess longevity unlike anything else. Sit beneath one and listen with your soul to the stories that abound; tree energy resonates with that of the spirit and the companionship of a tree, warms the heart’s fireplace.

Tree rings do resemble the rings on an old 33.3 LP record, although they tend to tremble with excitement . . . Enjoyed! Aloha!

Enjoyed this ode to trees. So true about the rings and longevity. And your ending stanza resonates in warmth of the feel sitting under a tree--I can relate.
