23 June: A Tree’s Diary Entry

Day 23. Write a diary entry from the perspective of a tree, chronicling its experiences and the changes it witnesses over the course of a year.

23-day-old moon in its fifth cycle: My ancient heart is awake again, young as a morning smile. Condolences to winter and its barren days. I prayed like a whisper for spring green and young as fresh leaves. These are my undreamed-of-days.

    ‘These are my undreamed of days’
    Makes me think of Cleopatra’s salad days. I love the idea of a tree dreaming, and knowing beyond dreams.

  2. Your Wi-Fi connection to the trees is strong, M – not a surprise really for this driftwood.

    1. I was raised on the scent seasalt and pine and huckleberries far far from where I am now. I sometimes think there’s a bit of me still haunting the forest where I played.
