Her Tree
by James ZealyHer tree is the tree of knowledge
Inspired it grows tall
Her tree is the seed of inspiration
That for ever questions all
Her tree is the flow of grace
Dancing to her own song
Her tree lives eternally
As its roots grow strong
Her tree is a branch in the wind
Reaching for a nourishing sun
Her tree is a second of despair
Surviving frosts of dawn
Her tree survives in dreams
Of future whispers of calm
Her tree is quioxte
Fighting the woodsman's brawn
Her tree is the land
Planted between her roots
Her Tree is waiting
For a care taker's salute
Her Tree is listening
As hope wind whispers
Her tree bears fruit
Walking on forest slippers
Her tree's gift
Falls to waiting needs
Her tree is the tree of knowledge
