There is something about trees.


Standing there solemnly,

watching us,

they stand guard

other their dappled,

sunlit kingdoms,

they sway gently,

stirring silently.


Kings, Queens both.

They survey their kingdoms

joyfully,

exulting in each creation,

loving each rabbit,

each robin,

each butterfly,

providing each

a secret lair.


They are vast, yet humble,

ancient, yet meek,

powerful, and yet,

they stir in the breeze.


They are beautiful,

unashamed,

in their majesty, yet,

they immerse themselves

in others glory.


They are simply trees,

and yet,

they take time

to whisper,

to me.
