I'm finding that I'm understanding the prose more when I hear it than when I read it, and even more when I see it illustrated. I'm actually surprised.

If it ends with a young boy tossing the pine comb onto a giant pile of pine straw and then pouring gasoline or kerosine on it and lighting it, then I might have been there.
But I admit nothing.

Loved viewing American history through Henry Livingston's pine tree, know you must have enjoyed doing this one.

Well written prose is better read aloud. As such, I think it functions much as does poetry.

For a different take on lyric and music regarding that phylum, I recommend:
“A Day in the Life of a Tree”, by The Beach Boys, from the album, Surf’s Up.
(This is far from surf music, despite the title. It is avant rock/pop.)
