Mother Nature's Way

In ancient mythology the Apple is one of the most sacred trees. Symbolizing  good health and future happiness. Since ancient times it has also been known as the 'Tree of Love' associated with Aphrodite, goddess of love.

Beneath the ancient moon the apple tree stands firm 
dressed in clinging leaves and golden rays of night 
Over by the garden where a ruby heart confirms 
a tree trunk stands upheld by the crowning of the light 

As stars of Eve appear with sparkling tails of every hue 
the diamond shimmering mist of night, befalls  
Drenching bark and branch with whisperings of I love yous 
it stands still and listens, to a Nightingale's sweet call 

This is the tree of love and here, love never dies  
long after the giving, it remains attached 
Blooming even in the thick of winter, I will now surmise 
Mother Nature holds surprises, that we cannot unlatch.

You always celebrate love and I agree with you. Hugs.
