The Yard Is Swaying

I am an earth girl. I am one with my land, and it is good. I left for three days once. Upon my return the willow tree began swaying back and forth with wild unashamed naked abandon. She was the leader, but other trees saw and they began swaying their branch arms back and forth too, in wild naturalness, yet oddly unnatural. My husband saw the yard swaying with happiness. He said, "The yard is glad to see you!" When we both looked again she had stopped swaying at all, and the others did too, but we could feel their happy hearts. I had planted that willow tree when she was a baby, and watered her like a maniac, so she could survive a brutally hot summer. I am an earth girl. All together I've planted 19 trees, and 11 bushes on my property in 11 years, and they are all happy to see me. Every day. Because I am an Earth girl, and I love them and they return that love back in full force. So glad I'm an Earth Girl.
