Trees are poems that the earth writes upon the sky

When Lissa died, her obituary on the funeral home website offered an option of planting a tree in her honor. We paid for five trees and shortly thereafter, I received an email from the forestry company, showing me where those trees had been planted.

Just recently, I went onto Google maps, plugged in the coordinates, and put in a label for that location.

I hope those trees live for centuries, providing shelter and sustenance for creatures great and small.
