Handcrafted by God.
Forged by nature.
Forests of the world
thrive on God's tears.
Symmetrical rings.
Varying sizes.
Tell us what's
happened in this
tree's years.
Wider rings.
Good year for growing.
Tree has nutrients and
rain to thrive.
Narrow rings.
Stunted growth year.
Not enough rain for
some to survive.
Forests of trees,
oxygen bearing,
help us humans
breath the air.
Walking through
woods and forests,
always reminds me
that God is near.
