In Search of the Giants of the Valley

Autumn is gradually making its presence felt. Temperatures are dropping, and storms are rolling in from the Atlantic, bringing the much-longed-for rain. The leaves are slowly turning yellow.

One day this October, I walked along the bottom of a remote and secluded valley. I had been told that a pair of giants were hiding there.

As I made my way through the shady, damp valley, questions began to cross my mind: Do the trees suffer during this season? Does it hurt them to shed their leaves? Are they, too, overcome by melancholy?

We know so little about the living beings that share the Earth with us!




A la búsqueda de los gigantes del valle


Poco a poco el otoño se va manifestando. Bajan las temperaturas, del Atlántico llegan borrascas que traen la tan anhelada lluvia. Las hojas amarillean lentamente.

Un día de este octubre recorrí el fondo de un valle remoto y perdido, Me habían contado que en él, se escondían una pareja de gigantes.

Mientras recorría el umbrio y húmedo valle, me iba haciendo preguntas: ¿sufren los árboles durante esta estación? ¿Les duele desprenderse de las hojas? ¿les invade a ellos también la melancolía?

¡Sabemos tan poco de los seres vivos que comparten con nostros la Tierra!
