I'm assuming the letters at the bottom all "fell" from the tree, but I'm not going to confirm that.

Flared base for safety.

I think the other person meant that the missing letters up in the tree "leaves" form the ground row. So that the letters in the last row may complete all the other rows. I doubt that it matches but wont confirm that either.

They do match. It's pretty neat.

I counted the letter "o". It doesn't match up.

I count three 'o's on the bottom, from "common", "problem", and "poems". Seems correct to me?

Edit:

Four 'u's from "deciduous", "autumn", and "until"; three 't's from "the", "the", and "themselves"; two 'r's from "stirrings" and "arrives"; three 'n's from "when", "begin", and "gently"...

And a "d" gently falling to complete the word

I love it, it's a nice touch

Guess I was wrong. Maybe it adds up.
