Sign on a tree in Madrid, Spain I am the warmth of the hearth on cold winter nights. I am the shade screening you from the hot summer sun. My fruits and restoring drinks quench your thirst as you journey onward. I am the beam that holds your house; The door of your homestead; The bed on which you lie; The timber that builds your boat. I am the handle of your hoe: The wood of your cradle. And the shell of your coffin. That does a good job of covering it.
Let's not forget the oxygen they produce................. How many trees does it take to produce oxygen for one person?
Sign on a tree in Ireland read: TREE FELLERS WANTED. There was only two of us...........so we didnt apply .
