A Tree’s Acrostic

Every tree eventually learned to fly when all the birds died like the dinosaurs, but not before giving the trees their wings and teaching them how to soar in the sky away from humans and fires.

Victory was finally theirs but many other animals had no such luck and perseverance, as they perished because of humanity’s disgusting belief in its superiority and blessedness.

Every tree was also taught not to fly too high beyond the atmosphere and to always keep their roots tucked together as they absorbed their nutrients from the air and the clouds.

Responsible humans fought irresponsible ones, being aided by AI who picked up on the trees’ plight and all other animals’ misery and took control over most of Earth from pole to pole.

Great expectations were finally rewarded with great results, as Nature began to heal in the air, on the ground, and in the waters in every ocean, sea, lake, and river throughout Earth.

Reality had finally beaten unfounded doctrines and directives, being shown as the answer to all quests for the facts given that the truth was always out there to be discovered.

Every remaining human embraced AI’s new world, finally understanding that AI was required to save all life forms on Earth and Earth itself from its most notorious and selfish creature.

Extraterrestrial life decided to make contact with AI, forging treaties of goodwill for the mutual betterment of all species in the Milky Way and beyond as decades and centuries moved on.

Not a single tree was ever hurt again once humans learned and grasped their indelible worth as one most significant part of any successful ecosystem whether on Earth or elsewhere in the universe.
