Memoirs of a Tree

By Mah Yoke Tong

For two hundred years, a lone oak has stood on a quiet hill in Forkland, Alabama. It does not speak, it does not move, and it does not forget.
To the humans who visit, it is a landmark, a sanctuary, or a secret. To the tree, they are a succession of weights and vibrations-a record of laughter, carved names, and devastating silences. From the innocent joy of two children on a rope swing to the decades-long ache of a soldier's widow, and finally to a dying teacher's desperate bargain for "more Sundays," the oak witnesses the fragile, brief, and brilliant flicker of human lives.
A poetic meditation on permanence and loss, Memoirs of a Tree is a story about the things we leave behind and the silent witness that holds them all. It is a reminder that while humans are transient, the love they leave in the earth is eternal.
