Crown of branches

The tallest tree bends a little as if to hear better. Leafy places a paw on the bark. The trunk is warm and steady. The wind hushes. 


Max hovers in a slow circle and lets his pride rest. A crown of small branches shapes a nest high above. Something rests there and gleams. 


The forest offers choices. Climb with careful steps. Ask the tree for a lift with friendly birds. Wait and watch for a safer moment. Or share a truth that feels hard and see what opens when we are honest.
