The Mother Tree
Simona Sparaco
What is a mother? Asks Myo, a curious red flower growing in a vast field after seeing a young woman hug a little baby, and a squirrel wrap a wandering pup in its warm fur. All around, colors and smells evoke love. Is this what it means to be a mother? Myo does not have the answer, so the curious flower asks the Great Big Tree whose leaves provide shade above.
