I love the playfulness of making a poem about a tree look like a tree❣️ Plus I love the patience of a tree to BE a tree. 🌳

And, of course, I love any message of hope. 🌲🌲

First, I love poetry about nature and especially about trees. But specifically, I love the patience and persistence this poem conveys.
