How they remain present
absorbing, observing
whatever is–
a witness to the green world
within and around them.

Yes. Thank you.
Love the title and how your poem holds that promise.
I’m writing about trees for a class. This one fits but since you write it, I’ll refrain. Good job!
Indeed! The trees contain and see all. Lovely poem!
I love “absorbing, observing/whatever is–” Yes!
