" RECITING HISTORY " MY PHOTO, ©

The old tree
couldn't stand upright anymore.
Age, winds, and storms made it fold,
condemning it to stay close to
the ground.
Its hollow trunk,
a pitiful sight one may think,
but it
the history of the forest, unceasingly
recites.
Oh,
how many things Man could learn
if only
he was willing to listen to its story!
