Simply Sunday

Tenacious Tree

Your foliage
struggles in
the summer heat

Not the most
beautiful tree
in the garden

Patches of brown
overtake your
remaining green

Yet, you gently call.
And I intently listen
You surely have much to say

Branches twisted,
pointing in all directions
Signs of enduring courage

If I sat at your feet
for only a day
I would surely be changed

  1. It warms my heart and soul (and gives me goosebumps) that someone else “sees” trees and thinks like me. But I can’t place my thoughts in such amazing poetry, dear friend. You’re gifts inspire me! Sending love and hugs!πŸ’•πŸ™πŸ»πŸ«ΆπŸ»
