I WAS ASKED by Gary F Campbell

In my youth I was asked, who are you? Now, with the weight of age, I think that I am ready to answer. I am the willow that bends in the wind. I am the great oak, whose roots defies the bones of the earth and anchors deep. I am the moment that was here and then is gone.
