To feel the joy of my transplant, caring hands that touch my very soul, the willing earth where you placed me blessed, by nature’s incessant role, the warmth of your regard like wine transcends, when the feeling of love surrounds me. Oh to be here yet not alone, beneath the azure sky needing your care, and those rolling clouds to come on by, to be a part of this complex simplicity sculptured I am, with in nature’s moods, yet here in this corner of your life, forever let this be our sanctuary! © Harry J Horsman 2012

This is a wonderful poem you have written here. From the title "tree" it could be a personification or an allegory. Very well written poem.

My sweet friend you have inspired to save tree too here in this wonderful poem. The worldly nature will become bald with out tree. They help us from many ways by sacrificing everything and play constant role of providing. Nicely done. Loved always, bl
