What's In a Name?

Having spent a full day
enjoying the great and grand outdoors,
I took note of something
that many folks might take for granted.
The vistas we were blessed with
stretched literally for miles.
Slopes and hills and mountains and flats.
Each and every area filled with shrubs and trees.
They did not compete with one another.
They did not belittle one another.
They complimented each other.
The towering pines;
the mighty oaks;
the flowering rhododendron;
the weeping boughs;
the brilliant leaves;
the tiny flowers.
Each bringing its own beauty.
Each providing its own charm.
Each sharing its own qualities.
They did not seek titles.
They just grew and existed
in all their glory.
Still think I'm talking about trees???
