When the Scarlet Oak
(Quercus coccinea, Beech Family), who
lived near the dumpsters, found out that I was making the rounds visiting
trees, He/She dropped several acorns on me.
Usually when I drop off my trash, I would visit with that particular
Scarlet Oak. This quiet tree wanted me
to play with Her/Him. (For some reason,
the Scarlet Oak wanted me to know that She/He was both male and female.) We played “acorns” for a while until the two nearby
Scarlet Oaks decided to join in the game.
Feeling contented and full of fun, the Scarlet Oaks and I threw acorns
at each other, while. The Scarlet Oaks informed me that They were not rulers of
the forests here, but that the Tulip Poplar and Sycamore were. The Scarlet Oaks were contented to live in
the shade of the taller Sycamores. My
friend, the Scarlet Oak wanted me to laugh, and to experience joy in my life. I shall continue to visit He/She and play.
