The trees breathe
so that I may breathe
enjoying the sweet smell
of the flowers
the musk in the air
after a summer rain
or the salty ocean breeze
blowing through my window
this is God’s creation
His perpetual creation
every inhale and exhale
perfectly planned
perfectly timed
everything to a purpose
nothing is wasted
the trees breathe
so that I may breatge
