Imagine the World without trees.
A stark desert without the beauty of its greenery.
Hard to think of such barrenness;
For that means, there’ll be no life.
So, when you see a tree hugger,
don’t be in a haste to laugh.
♣
In my place, when we say ‘may the forest be with you,’ it’s a prayer for your abundance of life, fertility and growth.
