Good One!

WELL DONE NICE TEASER.
Toast, it's: "Confused" not "Conflused." Anyway, good teaser! I thought that was pretty tricky. Who would think of a picture,
this was well written
Wow, I almost didn't get that one, until I remembered a picture is worth a thousand words. Then it all made sense. Great riddle!!
Nicely done! I missed it, though I wonder if maybe my guess could've worked. It's not nearly as clever, but I feel it suffices to say "seed."
One seed births thousands more.
The dead tree could have been the parent tree.
A "moment in time" could have referred to the common aphorism, "seeds of the future."
Tricky, tricky!
