Emma D's diary

At home: old oak

Trees are the standing spectators in this world. Everything moves and changes around them. I wonder how many times this old oak has watched a tractor plough, drill and harvest the field around its roots.

I wonder who and how many people have stopped under her branches. I think about all conversations that have been held under those leaves. How many horses and carts have trotted past, or perhaps did she witness a train pass?
