Tree-t him right

Bark and branches.
Sun and wind.
Leaves of gold, orange, and tin.
Love and joy,
Homes for the giving.
The tree sees everything. 
It's always a new beginning.
Rooted into place.
Watching.
Flowing.
Laughing.
And glowing.
Sticky maple.
Spikey thorns,
Lovley marks.
And much more.
Each one tells a story
Thick, thin, old, and young.
The start of the tree has just begun.
It cycles through life like a bicycle tire.
Moving forward.
Gettting tired and tired.
Rake the leaves. Jump right in.
The tree is happy when your here with him.

  • Happy

    This is a poem of hope,

     a poem of peace. 

    It is short and sweet, 

    simple as a bird going tweet.

    I just want to say 

    Covid please go away 

    that is all I have to say. 
  • You're Job Is A Tree

    You glow in the day,
    A shadow at night.
    As kids climb you they scream with delight.
    The sky turns pink, gold, and red.
    You sit there watching. With nothing to be said.
    You bloom in the spring,
    And loom in the winter.
