The Beauty of a Tree

I love trees. I'm drawn to them, pulling my vision to the heavens and making me feel rooted to the earth. They give me such a feeling of stability, of being anchored in the moment. I've always been a fan. When I was 16 I wrote a haiku: "The yearning of my soul is like the stretching of a tree, straining every leaf to reach the sun." A long time ago, but I'm still looking up.
