In this cycle of life, we can see the meaning so plainly,

as the old gives way to the new, differing slightly from before.

Embracing the discrepancy and utilizing the advantage of being unique

is crucial to the skeletons of the forest.

 

We are not merely individuals,

we are the flowers, the branches, and the bark.

When winter comes, our lives will end too,

and our offspring will flourish into the newest version of ourselves.

 

The lifecycle of the deciduous forest lasts but twelve short months,

yet within that span, we can watch the birth of the next generation,

observing as the new emerges from the old,

each unique in its own way, just as we are.

 

So let us not miss the beauty of this cycle of life,

let us cherish it and hold it close,

for the trees remind us that even in death,

new life will always emerge from the skeleton that came before.
