Human and Tree

Humans and trees, alike; Starting from little seeds; They both grow in a womb. Escape is imminent Many arms reaching high; Stretch out to greet the day. Feeding's from their Mom’s; Food, drink, nutrients; Build their bodies strong. They grow and produce Offspring like themselves. Nature’s circles Will never cease; Reincarnate; Cycle creates. Man and tree Brothers be; It is sweet; It is Simply, Life.

Hi MLK - an amazing poem - is this for a contest - if so sounds like a win to me! I love the line "they grow and produce offspring like themselves" how much more like humans could they be! Excellent write. Poetry hugs, Jennifer.

Thanks, no, it's not for a contest. Glad you enjoyed it though.

I have the most amazing trees that spring up so many offspring, I cannot find a peach tree in the middle of my forest and I planted it myself! You are right, it is life! Nice one my friend.

A profound description of the life that springs within all God's creatures. It's just as you say, M.L. A stunning diminished hexaverse! Best wishes, Carolyn
