Begin at the root, where earth hugs the hidden stories. Feel the pulse of the ancient oak; listen.
Your path branches left, where conifer needles rain silently—follow the trail of misted memories.
Upon the third willowing; hold the breeze. Speak with bark, and leaves will translate.
Calculate seasons through rings, transforming age into wisdom that hums beneath your fingertips.
The canopy watches over, an elder's gaze, always open. Trust in its enduring patience.
Revisit roots if the journey becomes unclear; for roots speak the truth that sunlight may obscure.
