Their Eyes Were Watching God

(PG 61) They wanted to begin, but the Parson wasn’t there, so a messenger was sent to the ruler in a tree where he sat.

Again if trees represent life and the process of life, and there is the ruler sitting in the tree that the birds have to wait on, this shows us not only the pecking order (pun intended) but how the ruler sitting in the tree is looking over the whole tree, and all of the other birds lives. The rulers people are the branches of the tree who are there to support him and hold him up.
