Much Like Love

Two old trees entangled in life, and in growth, much like love,
sharing the view and invested in their ways within nature, their bloom.
Finding themselves gripping the same stony, rough soil in the weeks of November,
while exchanging leaves filled with bright greens in moderately warmer weather.
Like You and I, they stand separately but together in a really big world,
and much like love, they find attachment and strength in one another.
