Listen to the Trees
Hush…
Do you hear the trees
Blowing in the breeze,
Bowing to the wind?
Shush…
Voices in my mind
Calling out my name
Always sound the same?
Mother o’ mine
Your voice is clear
Only the words I cannot hear,
Blending and bending with the leaves
Rustling and jostling on the trees.

An experiment, AD… trees are rather loud I think. Thanks, though, for always commenting positively. 🙂

The trees here don’t yet have their leaves unfolded for the summer. It was such a gift to see and HEAR your leaves. It’s funny how quickly we forget the various sounds of nature.
Thank you Denise,

I filmed this video a few months ago when the leaves were luscious and so healthy-looking! Now some of the trees are almost bare.
