What a hard hitting and well told lesson this is, Maple.

All the best

Wow that ending *shock face*

Andrea, blown away! Darn that Ben for beating me to nominate this. I feel we will all be mouth a-gaped when we read this.

Love this x

Love this, Andrea! Amazing!

The truth well spoken. We need trees and sadly more and more are being destroyed for what. Not to mention all the animals who depend on them. To me there is nothing greater then taking a walk through the forest and enjoying the breeze. There is not many left. You did a wonderful job with this write and yes indeed it deserves to win. All the very best

An eloquent depiction of how the poet bonds with trees, feels pain when the ax caving into the layers that trees in age grow up through them, with a great sense of sorrow:
"axing circles of life; age by age"

Hey Andrea

Wonderful piece of writing :)

Michael

As a forest and woodland worker, nature lover and conservationist I love this write. Absolutely wonderful :)
