Roots.
Intertwining system of life.
Providing nutrients throughout.
Time goes on.
Trunk.
The sapling grows.
Seasons change.
Branches.
Sprawling like arms with green fingers.
The sun shines bright.
Leaves.
Color becomes apparent.
Chlorphyll from within gives this away.
Time goes on.
The wind picks up.
The leaves fall.
Earth.
Covered in the dead skin of the tree.
Disappearing from the eyes of life.
Coldness.
Bare naked it stands.
Time goes on.
Lightning strikes.
The tree topples to the ground.
Released from the duties of the bond.
Death.
Time goes on.
A spark of a new life begins to show.
A seedling begins to grow.
Roots.
