Day 7 : Perfection



 

You help your brothers, sisters, parents and neighbours, even those whose name you barely remember.

You know much about chemistry but little about waste


You are part of the music of silence, touching the wind with you delicate fingers


You hardly complain, sleepy in winter, brilliant in spring, radian in summer, elegant in fall


You breath like no one, giving more than you take


You live the long life, abundant in time and pacience


You are my home, perfect and cosy


My playground, meditation mat, my secret


I owe you the life and the freedom of your surroundings


My friend, my brother, my family...


You FOREST, far more perfect, than any human creation

That is why I came up with the idea of writing a book whose core combines class analysis and planetary boundaries, but which is also co...
