I ask the forest
to suppose all trees
were burned away,
and every human died--what then?
"You ask me more
than forests know,
but never doubt
with such an earth as this,
where air and water flow,
where soil and lightning meet--that here the Silent Force
may manifest itself as life,
and grow again.
In fact, my roots feel far
beyond their depth
to areas of sustenance
where life is all there is."
