lovely tree

From a distance… It sounds like the whooshing wind in the leaves. The bark is as rough as spiky rock.

Close up… The tree smells like sticky sap and fresh eucalyptus leaves. Rough branches that feel like smooth paper.   

Above me… I see green leaves and blue sky as blue as clear ocean water. I hear birds loudly chirping in a beautiful brown wooden bird's nest as brown deep dark dirt.

Below me… I feel warm dirt and grass green as emerald. I see big tough roots and rough bark all over the chocolate brown dirt.
