Is interesting how they grow round and through things

I wonder if the soldiers that wore the helmets provided food for the tree's growth? I'd like to think they made it back to their families but we all know that's not all ways the case.

I'd be happy if a little bit of me was still growing on after I've gone, gotta be better than rotting away in a box next to a load of strangers.

Before Christianity infected us our ancestors used to plant trees on top of burial mounds.

 

all the land/plants around the area was sacred because they were fertilised by the blood of the peoples ancestors.

 

There was a strong tie between blood and soil.

14 million Russian soldiers killed in WW2. That's a lot of tree food.

What a number, frightening when you think what a selected few "leaders" can cause chasing their desire to prove they are in the right.
