M. L. Kiser Poet Free verse

Breath of the Trees

Breath of the trees, invigorate me;
Negative ions, oxygenate 
and I am refreshed.

Song of the trees, 
lull me to sleep; 
soft on my ears, 
you send me sweet dreams.

Faces of the trees, 
your beauty mesmerizes; 
enchants my imagination.

Fruits of the trees, 
nourish my body; 
fortify my life with your sustenance.

Wood of the trees, 
you gave me a home; 
self-sacrifice is noble; 
you never complained but, 
accepted your fate.

Beauty of the trees, 
your magic speaks to me; 
shimmering emeralds of the woods; 
your splendor inundates my spirit with joy.

Never stop your breath; 
you make this world a better place; 
your gifts, the most precious 
of all jewels.
