As a boy I knew there was more to trees than just limbs to be climbed and heights to be reached. There was something mysterious and magical about them. They were living creatures of infinite sizes and shapes and each of them had a story to tell. And these trees told their stories slowly, quietly, and poetically.

Thanks for you comment Cam! I too can relate having climbed many a tree. My favorite perhaps was the large elm in the from yard where I grew up—my respite.
