The Secret Treehouse

Swoosh!
As the gentle breeze pushes at your clueless face, your eyes begin to take in the secret treehouse.
The vines calmly stroke across your body while you find yourself staring at a bunch of children playing, building and making memories.
You see one lifting huge, dry logs when you spot another sitting on a damp, stump reading a massive novel.
The soil is moist, and the rocks are as slippery as a wet pole in the winter, but that doesn’t stop the children from having fun.
The sky is clear and all you smell is juice as the apple slices on a dish get demolished by hungry children.
You climb the tree and once you reach the top you see the breathtaking view, meanwhile, you are watching over the luscious forest!
As you climb down and unexpectedly discover more of this unbelievable tree you notice the sun start to set and more and more kids begin to disappear from their urge to eat.
When all of the children are gone you are all by yourself and it is so peaceful and quiet that you can hear yourself breathing.
When the sky is pitch black you see fire flys forming around the hanging vines.
Now you start to think.
What beautiful wonders are still out there?
