Do The Trees Speak

Do the trees speak back to the wind

when the wind offers some invitational comment?

As some of us do, do they also talk to the sun?

I believe so, and if such belief need rest on the evidence, let me just say, Sometimes it's 

an earful.

 

But there's more.

 

If you can hear the trees in their easy hours

of course you can also hear them later,

crying out at the sawmill...
