Thanks for bringing this to the front. It brought a smile to my morning, and reminded me of the things that matter. I have 3 large trees outside my window - a poplar, a eucalyptus and a pine. I planted the poplar & the eucalyptus a few years ago, and both have grown taller than the house. The pine is a wise old guardian, a symbiot who almost lost her battle with the Japanese borer beetle a few years ago, but who I managed to treat & save. She lost a major limb to snow awhile back, but still stands strong, even if bent like a crone in her old age.
The eucalyptus brings dreams, dragging her lacy fingers over the roof of my bedroom, sounding like rain. The poplar whispers a lot - sometimes I understand her, other times I know I'm still trying to learn the language of poplars.
Just got home from a trip to Oregon, where the trees are like an entire civilization of ancient souls.
