Trees
She wears a delicate dress of emerald green leaves,
her arms rich with fruits so succulent and the flowers so luscious!
She sways side to side to the touch of the wind,
dancing ever so lithely.
She caresses the creatures of her home
bestowing them with shelter and food.
She cools the air and invites rain,
She is strong and kind
she is selfless and she provides!
Sprouting with life throughout spring,
Spread out leaves shading the green grass in summer,
Bursting crimson, orange and gold leaves in autumn,
Come winter her leaves are shed but her beauty not compromised!
Wild storms and harsh weather,
yet she thrives in the test of time!
Be it spring or fall, she stands tall!
She is firm and resilient,
her branches spread wide and held high,
spurning to bow or bend
she rather reaches up to the sky!
