I love plants. Once, in a large store, I bought a small shrub with pale green leaves. I became attached to it. Every morning I greeted my tree, and every evening I said goodbye to it. I spoke to it, gently touched its leaves, asked about its needs, and did my best to take care of it.

And then, my beloved tree miraculously responded to my love and affection. One morning, delicate pale pink flowers of rare beauty appeared, filling my entire room with a wonderful fragrance. But, as everything has an end, these beautiful flowers eventually withered. I cried for a long time, and through my tears I did not notice that in place of the flowers divine fruits of unknown beauty had appeared. With my plant’s permission, I dared to taste them.

Their flavor was so astonishing that wondrous things began to happen. Suddenly, I remembered that I could paint, sing, dance, and understand the language of birds and stars. Extraordinary magical birds began to visit me, and I became friends with them. Then I decided to draw all of this and show it to people, so that everyone in the world could see the magical possibilities of love.
