Begin now with paper, pen and a hot cuppa.
Begin, earlier today, with a slow walk in the woods, noticing small pockets excavated in the snow and soil.
Begin, last fall, with Eastern Gray Squirrel digging a shallow hole and burying an acorn.
Begin, decades ago, with a different acorn, also buried, but sprouting, and, over the years, growing and flowering, yielding this newly unearthed acorn.
Begin with another acorn and another and another through millennia.
Return to this moment with paper, pen and a hot cuppa. What acorns will this writing yield?
