"Dozens of trees had been ruthlessly axed, their doomed trunks forming a haphazard border around the clearing. There was no way to replace such venerable trees, not in his lifetime, not in his children’s children’s lifetimes." —Forest of Wonders by Linda Sue Park

Ordinary Things

Looking at the world through the fir tree meant seeing only the essential things: the vivid green of the grass, dew glistening on petals, a robin flicking its tail, a squirrel rustling through the rhododendron, a miracle of life and growth that forever pulsed under the ordinariness.
