Michael J. Falotico Poet I do not know?

Finally Seeing

By Michael J Falotico


                                              as a child we climb..
                                       branch after branch to the top..
                                                  finally seeing..

                                                 now as an adult..
                                         images not much the same..
                                            a slow climb back down..

Carolyn Devonshire April 3, 2011 at 10:32 AM As children we grow, as adults we "climb back down" from the beauty that can be seen from the tops of trees. Now I want to go out and climb a tree, Michael. Love this poem. A favorite for sure! Love, Carolyn
