I just love it. Imagine if trees could talk. We would learn so much. I love to write about nature and especially trees. They lend themselves to so many writing ideas don't they? The Tiny Seed story was a well known children's book with elementary teacher's. It was written by the late Eric Carle. Your poem was so clever, I just loved it
