How to talk to a tree

Close your eyes and feel the tree’s cool breeze

on your warm body.

Can you hear it?

If not, open your eyes and lean against the trunks

and listen to the trees’ whistling wind.

The branches are shaking.

No matter what season,

you can still talk to the trees

In summer, bring a spare water bottle for the trees

In autumn, bring a bucket for the spare leaves

to take the weight off the roots

In winter, recite a cheerful poem

In spring, just think of the trees
