Growing up, my yard was surrounded by all kinds of trees. They provided shade, and homes for the birds and other animals who lived in them. Climbing trees wasn’t something I enjoyed doing simply because it wasn’t my thing, now on the other hand, my brother and cousin, and sister would climb trees and the like, but I never participated. Trees are so important to nature. It is because without them, where would animals live who lives in trees, such as monkeys, snakes, and other living creatures? I love trees because they are strong and tall and full of wisdom that we cannot see or hear, simply because they have been around for many generations. You can really tell just how old a tree is by counting the annual rings in it when it has been cut, I learned that in school, and by watching nature shows on television, and by reading books. Isn’t it amazing how trees grow straight from the ground, and how sometimes they lean and don’t fall while growing? That is amazing to me. Some trees have seeds that will fall to the ground and replant themselves over time. They take root and regrow; I have seen this for myself such as the tree next to my porch next to my fire bushes. I guess this is why I like being around trees and nature. The funny thing about trees is that they never stop growing. They just grow and grow until they are blown over by nature, or until someone cuts them down. Trees are used for lots of things, such as making furniture, pencils, paper, boats, and so many other things. So, hello trees, thank you for letting us use and enjoy you. Until next time, deuces.
