It’s 2022 – and the first day of the new year. Today is a day for reflection. What are you going to do this year?

Why not opt to improve nature everyday. I am going to make a point to do at least one thing to improve nature each day.

It can be as simple as picking up trash from the roadside, starting a compost pile, or repurposing an item rather than throwing it in the trash. Even turning down the thermostat one degree helps.

We only have one Earth. Connect with it, take care of it, and keep your mind on the trees.

In The Presence of Trees

I am blood

and sap,

Skin

and bark,

Arms

and limbs,

Hair

and leaves,

Standing

and swaying,

In the wind.
