Summary

The website content reflects on the theme of respect for nature, particularly trees, through a combination of poetry, quotes, and salad art imagery, emphasizing the silent service of trees to humanity amidst the challenges of climate change.

Abstract

The web content titled "RESPECT RESPECT — A PROMPT" delves into the concept of respect for the natural world, with a focus on trees. It features a poem "A Foretoken" and a quote from Andrea Koehle Jones' book "The Wish Trees," which underscores the generosity of nature. The article includes a black and white gif of salad art symbolizing climate change, with a broken tree representing the end of its service to humanity. The author, inspired by Carolyn Hastings, extends a poetry prompt invitation to readers to engage with the theme of respect. The piece concludes with a heartfelt tribute to trees worldwide, acknowledging their silent contribution to human life and the environment, despite the lack of a dramatic display of life and death as seen in humans.

You may find me broken I will serve until my end — a foretoken as every breath of mine respects this earth until humans shine

Thank you, and with my respects, dear Carolyn Hastings, for the below prompt and extension of the July prompt.

I assembled the salad art shown in the header with asparagus, carrot slices (shaped like leaves), avocado bits, and beet strips. The theme is climate change, and a broken tree serves us until the end when its colors disappear before it turns to dust. The beet strips placed near the broken trunk, symbolize human blood's color. Trees bleed just not in a drastic color like humans, and they serve us silently until their end.

All my respect to the trees around the world for serving us.

Thank you for reading!
