Learning from Nature

The trees,

silent teachers,

remind me of strength, generosity, and growth.

We can always learn

when we are willing to listen,

and turn down the noise of our ever busy minds.

We take root in love,

the very foundation of our characters.

We stretch our branches never stopping to grow.

Our trunks hold everything together,

unmoved when the storms come.

Oh the trees, they also provide

a home to the creatures of the sky.
