The Relationship of Vines and Trees
by Tota LongmireI twisted him around my finger
Like a vine twined around a tree trunk.
Vines need trees to climb, for support.
Sometimes, though, the vine can
Become part of the tree each
Supporting, overlapping, the other.
He is my vine, as I am his tree
We each support the other
And without him there
Would be no me. 01/07/2007 Posted on 01/07/2007

Become part of the tree each
Supporting, overlapping the other."
there's meaning in the simplicity. i really enjoyed reading this..
