Trees move the muse of poetry art
Their beauty is a ballad of heart.Quote poets own.
Trees to me are charming queens of earth
Proudly they stand extending their girth
When springs young leaves upon branches grow
Whose heart could not be moved by the show.
Imagine the earth without a tree
How we would all miss the greenery
Trees have a calming serenity
An ambiance of tranquility.
Denuded trees standing in the stark
Are twilight’s fine silhouettes of art
Impressive displays of graciousness
Elaborate in their nakedness.
Providing a place for birds to rest
And raise fledglings in a cosy nest
Trees are the stage upon which birds sing
Sweetly in dawn’s chorus rendering.
Beneath the bark lies a tender soul
To us trees play an enormous role
They purify air so we may breathe
To fend for our need, trees God bequeathed.
Down in the deep of the underground
Are the roots holding trees firm and sound
With nutrients their needs to supply
So spring brings leaves that pleasure the eye.
Age does not weary trees easily
These beauty queens live on anciently
They hold secrets that were seen and heard
But never do they disclose a word.
