Cobi likes nature

I sit in the backyard and watch the tree next to me
The wind roars
It doesn’t like the tree
I wonder how long the tree has fought the wind for
Tens, hundreds, thousands of years
Impressive
I start thinking about other things in nature
The trees, the rocks, the leaves
All working together to make nature, a beautiful place
I think about what we have done to this place
What would this place have looked like before we came?
All humans have done to this beautiful place
Just to make life a slight bit better?
That is not a good excuse to do this
What a beautiful place this is
How could we have done all this to nature?
I think about the tree I'm looking at
Maybe the wind is training the trees
To prepare for us
That makes me feel sick
