Your Tree of Life is Taking Shape



Your
Tree of life
Is taking shape
-
Its leaves made of labels
Bearing words that you spake
-
It is best that you think
Of the leaves
You attach
-
Once
Spoken

They
Hang there
-
You can't get them back

Yes is ok, you probably wouldn't want to get that back.

I'd forgotten about this

the other day I drew a tree of words. . . a tree of feelings; there were five branches: glad, sad, mad, scared and sexy. . . with many smaller branches and twigs and oh! so many words in the language to describe how one feels

I love the way you put them together

Dear i,s,ltv,
Well that is very kind of you and it is nice to share ideas!
I hav'nt got around to actually deliberately putting words on my labels yet but most words on my tree I am happy with, others perhaps not, but they are all hangin there now and there is not a lot I can do about it except learn from them.
Each leaf is as important as the other in the bigger picture though.
All an essential part of the grown tree.
Trouble is it's autumn time and they might start to drop off soon!
Sincerely
Egal..
