The Tree Moved
By Sue Greenwald
In the late 1990’s, I was walking along the country roads in PA. I was about 2 miles away from most of the housing developments, and was passing a small grouping of very tall trees. There were perhaps about an acre or two of them tightly grouped together. It was a quiet afternoon, and I’d often walked along this quiet country road.
On this occasion, I heard a loud noise, looked up, and saw that a tree was actively moving. Only 1 tree out of the whole grouping was moving! It was in the middle of the grouping, vigorously swaying from side to side and moving, for no apparent reason. There wasn’t any wind or any other “logical” reason that would make a 50-foot tree move. It wasn’t just swaying with the wind; it was actively rocking from side to side. The tree was maybe two foot in diameter, and was tightly packing in with all the other trees, which were silent.
What would make one tree out of a thousand actively move? I stood and watched the tree for a while, unable to find any logical reason that it’d be moving. It got my attention, and I watched it without any understanding at that time. I know that trees are intelligent beings with consciousness and intelligence. I’m just not sure why this particular one moved!
