Wood plays an important part in our lives

An organic material that literally grows on trees

Trees are not just things of beauty

They capture carbon from the atmosphere

Helping to create healthy air for us all to breathe

A new born baby sleeps in a wooden crib

That child lives in a home built from wood

Sits in a wooden chair

Eats at a wooden table

His food was prepared with a wooden spoon

He goes to school and sits at a wooden desk

Reading books made from wood

Leaving school with a diploma made from wood

He starts his career by knocking on a wooden door

Interviewed at a wooden table

Taking an office job with a wooden desk

Signing papers made from wood

Receiving a paycheck made from wood

Getting married in a church made mostly from wood

Building a new home mostly from wood

Furnishing the home with a lot of wood

Building a dog house with wood

Adding a wooden fence around the property

Sitting in a wooden rocking chair on his wooden porch

Sleeping at night in a bed framed with wood

Planting trees to grow wood for the future

Grill parties fueled by wood based charcoal 

Cutting down trees to gather wood for the fire pit 

Collecting family memories in wood framed photographs

He grows old gracefully in his favorite wooden chair

Passing away and laid to rest in his wooden coffin
