Crown Shyness Poem by Ima Ryma

Crown shyness is a tree term that
Refers to social distancing.
Growing close in a habitat,
Trees avoid the top touching thing.
So when the tops of trees do touch,
The trees use wind to force away
Other tree tops, not caring much
For any such closeness to stay.
Why are the trees' behaviors so?
Perhaps to avoid catching bad.
Researchers as of yet don't know.
It must be more than just tree mad.

Each tree wants its own time and place,
Keeping its own personal space.
