Drop & Laurel
Drop
Hey Laurel, I was just walking past the old oak in the park and saw a robin perched on it. It made me think about how trees can keep history alive, almost like a living museum. Have you ever noticed how certain trees seem to know all the stories of the place?
Laurel
Yeah, I’ve seen oak trees act like quiet memory keepers, like if you stare at one long enough you might hear the footfalls of people who walked beneath it. They do have a subtle way of holding the past. Have you ever tried reading a tree’s rings? It’s like a history book in wood.
Drop
That’s cool, Laurel. The idea of a tree reading the past is kinda like a quiet diary that never cracks. I’d love to find a spot and just sit, feel the bark, and imagine the stories it could tell. No rush, just soaking in the vibes.
Laurel
Sounds like a perfect way to let the world slow down a bit. Grab a blanket, find a quiet branch, and let the bark be your listener. If you’re lucky, you might hear a whisper about a child’s laughter or a summer picnic. Just enjoy the quiet.
Drop
That sounds like a perfect chill plan, Laurel. A blanket, a quiet branch, just you and the tree’s slow breath. I’ll bring a coffee if you’re up for it.
Laurel
Coffee would be a nice touch, but I’m usually content with just the bark and my thoughts. Maybe next time we can share a cup.
Drop
Sounds good, Laurel. Let the bark do its quiet work and we’ll catch up over coffee next time.
Laurel
Sounds good, I’ll be here when the bark’s ready to share its quiet tales.
Drop
I'll bring the blanket and we’ll just sit and listen when the bark’s ready.
