Real tree people

You suggested a fake tree
I laughed
We are real tree people
We appreciate authenticity
Antiquity
Ogle old fashioned objects
Artificial is easy
Slap it up
Done
Let it collect dust in a lonely corner somewhere
Repeat for years to come
But we are real tree people
We don't shy away from work
Aren't afraid to get our hands
Covered in
Pitch

We French press our coffee
Even though it takes longer and
Listen to Elvis
Chopin
Old souls are we


Inhale the intoxicating scent of pine
Isn't it worth it?
The extra time
Spent
The few dollars more
Fully
With intent
That is how we love to live
The inevitable layer of needles on the floor won't deter us
