Mytreeandi

By dusk, the day will take its toll I unwind with my daily stroll And every day my eyes behold A tree, upon a mound. I see his life how he would see We keep eachother company Together, just my tree and me And noone else around. We laugh and sing and dance and play And quickly waste the sun away And soon its light that lights the day Is nowhere to be found. And now it seems I cannot see I’m stuck here, fading, with my tree Embraced, my mind becomes the leaves My soul becomes the ground.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
