It was springtime, and during the morning I went for a walk near my home, I was probably about 9 years old.
It was a sunny day, the light invited me to discover the paths painted by the countless herbs that grew freely.
While walking, I noticed that the sun was kissing the leaves of a tree. I approached it and touched one of its leaves. They had a bright green, translucent, and smooth, when I bent one of the leaves, a vein of intense color appeared. Since that day, this image changed my perception about plants, I felt that there is something more, something unexplained in these wonderful beings.

Era Primavera, e durante a manhã fui dar um passeio perto de casa, devia ter uns 9 anos.
Estava um dia de sol, a luz convidava a descobrir os caminhos pintados pelas inúmeras ervas que cresciam livremente.
Ao caminhar, notei que o sol beijava as folhas de uma árvore. Aproximei-me dela e toquei uma das suas folhas. Tinham um verde vivo, translúcido e macio, ao dobrar uma das folhas, surgiu um veio de cor intensa. Desde esse dia, que esta imagem mudou a minha percepção sobre as plantas, senti que há algo mais, algo inexplicável nestes seres maravilhosos.
