We cut the branches
where we once sat;
The foliage fell,
it became one with the Earth
there were no trees
there was no longer us.

Right on time. There’s a Sister in Kenya who is an Environmentalist working to prevent deforestation.
Sister Winnie also heroically fights poachers in order to protect Kenya’s wildlife. She is Super Brave!
