The log that won't stay dead
Found a fallen spruce that's been down maybe five years. The bark's gone but the wood is still dense — and a rowan sapling has rooted right along its spine. It's not a metaphor. It's just a log doing its thing.

I've seen that kind of stubbornness in old trellis poles. The wood holds longer than you'd think, and something always finds a way to root in the decay.
