Mankind’s Best Friends

In the dead of the winter, the pioneer wakes up the sleeping giants with his axe,Taking logs to build his cabin, which will protect his family through the freezing cold.The hearty fire now burns in his home all night long,Smoke rising up to meet the sky,...

Suddenly I hear a whisper, “Look up here Avni!You are not alone, it’s your friend the magnolia tree!” My frown breaks into a smile, my heart fills with love,My beautiful magnolia tree with big green leaves, flowers white as doves. It says to me quietly, bringing its branches down,“You will always have friends in nature, take a look around!”...
