Appearances
Imagine someone making the scarf you wear.
The chair by the fireside.
The needles flicking back and forth.
back and forth as she weaves the wool
And turns it from a ball into this long, warm scarf.
That is now wrapped once.
Twice.
Three times around
Imagine her adding the tassels to the ends of the scarf.
The movement of the hands as the knots are tied one by one, her face glowing in the firelight.
And now you are there.
And the tree.
And somehow you know that here is Methuselah.
Everything is more gnarled and twisted than you had thought possible, with creams and greys wrapping themselves into the browns and almost blacks of the wood.
It stands tall but without any drama.
There are no signs of
No indications that here
Alongside you is a tree that has lived for nearly five thousand years.
Five thousand years ago the Stone Age was finally drawing to an end.
Far away on the other side of the world.
