The Cherries of D.C.

hello, I suggest these word changes simply because it would remove the anthropomorphism. It is much better to reverse the metaphor (that is, to make man a tree and not a tree a man). A tree doesn't 'anxiously anticipate' anything, people do. The trick may be not to show how the process of non-human nature relates to me but how I relate to non-human nature. That is, I do not find anything 'new' in thinking emotions in objects, but I may find something new within my own experience if I am able to be literal about the world around me. or something like that.
Personally, I would alter the words to, "until that" or something equally 'unwordy'.
