Weeping willow watches me

The wind in its branches

Yes, kind of. You need to circulate air in a greenhouse or you'll have fungal issues, for example.

Ode to another of the four elements

sweet images of trees, of wind and hampter fur

a passing softness that without the thinking sand would have remained unsaid.
