Observing a tree while I waited for Cody to see the psychiatrist..Sara
0 Tree Stands Naked Skeletal Some nut's old shells stay Some mistletoe still, squirrel's nest The soul is now bare for all to see in its winter In honor of Brian Strand

Looks like a good example of a fibonacci poem. Those types are not easy to write.

This is a great display of an awesome write! I'm not familiar with the Fibonacci form but I get the general idea from this poem! I like how your described the tree and its winter condition! Still having the remnants of Christmas through the mistletoe displaying this previous holiday! How bare it is during the winter months, perfect Sara! I love the poem, awesome work!!
