Tree

Whoever has learned how to listen to trees no longer wants to be a tree. He wants to be nothing except what he is. That is home. That is happiness.
~Herman Hesse

I don't think I have ever wanted to be a tree. I love a good tree, though. I love a tree that is full of great branches and standing alone in a field somewhere. There's something just really beautiful about that to me.

And if in that tree there is a house, and in that house there is a man who lives alone and simply, I just move on. He probably isn't the kind of person who wants visitors and he probably has stuff up there he can throw at me. Plus, I need to get going, anyway.
