Behind the kissing tree we'll meet
when evening skys turn dim
confir my love confession sweet
beneath the branch and limb
The earth provides the mineral
the sky no limit knows
for vertical the movement is
as trees have learned to grow
With each specific duty does
a species learn survival
adapting to environ new
one chance upon arrival
The best time of the year my love
come cool or weather warm
is underneath with tree above
entrapped in your sweet charms
A stand out in a season new
that bridge I wish to cross
And enter in deep woods of blue
tis' mirthful right passage
For bowing down this right to serve
the ancient tibes have fed
providing much for many years
so many more have bled
Climb up and try to reach the sky
harvest the milky seed
and should the bister storm blow by
provide me heat in need
Inspire one to far outreach
Empires you have built
from reams of paper we do teach
protecting laws of guilt
Aggrandized this ancient pair eyes
connected and entwined
of offspring many family ties
ancestral pure bloodline.
There is a favored tree of light
symbolically appears
each holiday adorned with love
surrounded by my dears.

The trees, your photography skills, your accompanying words.
Poetry, all of it.
That first Tree!
How hysterical and cool : )
Delicious visual and literary images! I got the same chills reading this I got when I discovered the romantic poets in college!
You so rock, my friend. I had one haiku that related to one of my trees, but I decided not to add it since the other trees might feel the favoritism. You have done it!!!! Woven the poetry with the tree imagery. The elegance and eloquence of the work of tg within!
I will be back! best, libby xxx
