The History of TREE EDITION

 by Albert Reyerman

German version

English version


In the japanese word "Shibumi" he found what he always stand for which refers to a particular aesthetic of simple, subtle, and unobtrusive beauty.
We found his letter which said:
"Albert was not torn from life -

he has completed his life in the best sense."

A Tree and Me

Please carve no cold headstone for me
but rather plant a sapling tree
And lay my ashes beneath its foot
so through my body it takes root

Then as the seasons come and go
my monument and I will grow
Wave bright green flags at summer's sky
and harbor birds who happen by

We'll bronze each autumn, bloom with spring,
and wear the white coats winters bring
The tree I marry with my dust
will husband me with rooted thrusts

Our seed will scatter far and wide
across God's fertile countryside
And soon an arbor family
will share our immortality
A tree and me


Oscar Jr. Brown
Songwriter
