Trees Want Affection

Into the group of old trees I go heedlessly The trees all welcome my step I move carelessly Trees want affection I walk there beside the trees They want attention Russell Sivey Form Seguidilla

Great poem! Love the form too... never seen it before! You should enter it in one of poeticpossibilities.tk 's contests. I think you'd have a great chance of winning... I 've read some of your other poems as well and they're all great. You're a phenomenal poet, and any poem you enter would be great. If not, I wish you the best with your poetry career, even though I think that would be a terrible decision. Anyway, great poem and keep up the great work!
