PHOTO-STORY: I SPEAK OF YOU...

You speak the language of consistency and longevity while wishing that humans will learn from your lifestyle.

Your leaves may be tiny but they have not rejected their source or question their origin. They are not rebelling from being grafted together in one accord as they seem to dance to the piper tunes of the wind with so much joy.

One remarkable thing well noticed about your fashion (leaves) is the freedom of expression they enjoy without the lashes of a disciplinarian. Your tranquility is deeply envied by the bustling cities of the world and your quietude is an attraction for geeks who dreads the slightest disturbance!

Though, the wind tries to shape your direction, it rather drives your stems stronger down the soil to stand the test of time. I believe you're laughing already at those murmuring about ozone layer depletion because you're doing your part tirelessly with the hope that others will reciprocate.

Its remarkable how you practice "live and let live" when you shifted a bit for a road to be created in your vicinity. You sacrificed your kind without shedding tears because you of all creation understands the weight of CHANGE. The pathway waves a smooth smile every morning in appreciation to how accommodating you are and for an enviable landlord for a neighbor.

I wish humanity learns from your unwavering focus on growing higher no matter the storms and the winds that blows.

You're so resolute and accommodating without getting distracted at your destination high. The more you stretch, your beauty shines further giving hope to the dwarfs. We can't disagree it turns even the stiffest of necks.
