Dear Tree, 

I like to just look at you. You are a warmth to my eyes, especially when you have regrown leaves and stand in a group. I don't mind the leaf-less version of you either but the green is everything the eye wants. Birds and squirrels, hang out as if it's their home and trusts you a lot. I wonder what they see in you that we lack. I mean, we can give them shelter and feed them too. But they come to you even though you shake vigorously during heavy breeze or storm. You don't mind if they peck on you and build a home inside of you. I don't think we can tolerate it or allow such a thing. May be that's what make the birds and squirrels come to you.

I envy you at times. You get to caress the delicate creatures and obtain their trust and love.
