Rowan’s words

Well I don’t have a favourite tree at all , because I love all trees.

And some of the trees , they remind me of people .

You watch them when a gentle breeze comes and they get excited

as if they want to tell each other things , like people,

you get excited about something you want to ring your friends.

And then the storm comes and they shake this way, that way and everywhere , but they are always trying to hold each other up so you won’t fall.

And that’s like for people, you have your dark days but you can rely on your friends and groups to hold you steady , you plant your feet firmly like the roots on the ground , you go with the breeze and you get your friends to help you .

And then there is the calm, you look down at your feet and you just see the beauty and you appreciate the beauty that is around you .

Thats really all .
