Lonely Tree

the weary soul slumbers under her branches
while our life flickers under her leaves
wanting the light to shine brighter then the sun
leaving tiny messages on leaves that fall
evergreen , mighty oak , eucalyptus
just to name my few under her wings 
collecting the early morning dew
sweet air i inhale the drought she has been through
withers her limbs though her roots are deep
she thirsts for more
