Which quote resonates most with you? Read or listen now, only on Scribd:

Shelter: A Love Letter to Trees

"It is never only trees, but what binds us together, the trees, the roots, the eternal part of us that is both the seed and the tree.”

“So to talk about trees is to talk about our attachment to them. To talk about trees then is also to talk about each other, the ways we are attached to what is living and how much we want it to go on doing just that for as long as possible." (continued)

“I like the ways trees keep things secret. Underneath them is a whole universe and in between them it’s all things that live in the shadows.”

“I’d much rather trees outnumber people on a level of extreme abundance.”

“That was my favorite part of the drive, passing that fallen over tree that now looked, not like an accident, or something broken, but like a safe place in between places.”

In “Shelter: A Love Letter to Trees,” poet

shares her deeply felt relationship to trees and all they teach us, from silence and stillness to healing and resilience.
