Autumn Oak Tree

The cold north winds that stripped you bare,
Shall bring a white cloak for you to wear.

This is how my Autumn trees look already.

Dazzling, inspiring, beautiful oak trees, Brenda. And so is your poem. A 7 and a sav. I praise God for giving you your talent of poetry and your using it so expressively. While other God given talents are wasted!
