The Tree by Paula A. Wagner
The Tree
The Tree stands steadfast
Giving breath to mankind
It's everlasting strength
weathers all time and nature
The wind and the rain are
its benefactors
Giving shade from the sun
Its leaves dance in the wind
Its branches sway in ere
direction
It bears witness to all tragedy
And lends a resting place for poets
and lovers
Giving shelter to the homeless
and to the friends of nature
furred and feathered
It splinters and burns when
struck down by God's bolts of
lightning
Its ashes enrich the earth
Its bark renders the written word
and makes strong bond for books
of knowledge
Its sap is drained to feed
the hungry
Its roots hold the earth together
Lest it slip away into the
universe
Therefore the tree is a
reflection of
the Lords Infinite wisdom and
the splendor
Of all his creative endeavors
The Tree
IS
