And I love the artwork too.
Prompt writing?
Anyway, I forget the reasoning so I can immerse myself in this warm bath.

Talking to trees, and listening to their replies, to their wisdom, is one way to understanding how all life is connected, intertwined, in a fundamental way. It is how we become more humane and how we find love. I think your poem is a testament to this, Elke.

Yes indeed, all of life is deeply interconnected. All living beings are deeply dependent on one another. Whatever happens to one species has affects on the whole planet. E.g trees have a well functioning communications system.They warn each other of danger; if it serves the well-being of the entire forest, they even help their competitors.
thank you very much for your meaningful comment dear Curt! 🌲😊

Love the pun at the end and the romp through consumerism. Man, I’m like this with running shoes…
Solid pen, Wally

Thanks Damian. I knew I may tap in the world of Dr. Who but in this little poem, with so little time, I had to.
