"I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree..."

When I am among the trees...
I would almost say that they save me, and daily...
Around me the trees stir in their leaves
and call out, “Stay awhile.”
“It’s simple,” they say...you too have come
into the world to do this, to go easy, to be filled
with light, and to shine.” -Mary Oliver
