The Heart of the Tree

In Honor of Earth Day Youthful Wisdom

Down from the Tree (CCO)

June 17, 1878 County Farm

"I pressed back into the heart of the tree and waited, for what, I could not explain. Bein’ in my tree was good because no one could find me. I climbed way up, close to the top. The higher I climbed, the less visible I was to those rooted in the earth. Unfortunately for them, they were limited. Trees—misunderstood and under-appreciated—were the eyes, the witnesses of the world. There wasn’t a better place for untanglin’ thoughts and bein’ amongst clouds. " Samuel Hodgdon
