Looking forward to this- this prompt hits differently when you have synesthesia. :P
i definitely relate to the questions this poem asks in the face of seasonal change and wanting to imitate it and at least get some ounce of that guarantee for regrowth after cold devastation
I really liked this piece! The questions posed to the trees are so earnestly simple, so concisely phrased. And I love the sounds of "only whispers what the wind will allow" as well as the idea. Really cool.

Hey, if it's any comfort, I read other people's pieces all the time before writing my own. It prompts me to think about the prompt in new ways, which gives me a more original idea than what I started with!
Just read your prompt for this week - loved it especially the last few lines!
thanks!!
