Tree I thank you


You big and proud tree
how glad you must be
you prossess so much
know the history
whisper the word of wise
sending the warmest energy

your stem so robust
your soul so worthy
to give life and energy
believe - to be that proud

your root so well burried
a basis in mother earth
for even though we cant see
this is your life too

your branches reach up high
to our heavenly father
tells us through hissing
the word of wisdom
you big and proud tree

I thank you

nice curtains
Love trees. Don't really appreciate the line about the heavenly father , given it has god connotations and being a total non believer, but all the other sentiment I get exactly. "This is your life too." I like that especially.

Wow! -this is great:-) Yes, a tree is a symbol of little of each - as for me, I see a tree as a symbol of human being with roots; a person who knows him or herself.
Best wishes

such beauty trees offer us as they simply and majestically just "be." This is a wonderful poem written with a nice flow and a genuine love of nature.

A tree really is life giving! So much in our lives depends on trees, much more than we realise! Alas we are destroying and cutting down these very trees...
Thanks for sharing this!
