Nature Decorates a Tree
Nature Decorates a Tree
In the dead of winter, a beautiful pine tree
Grows in the middle of a field
Full of pine scent and pinecones
With a dried pine needle bib
Abandoned spider webs
Gently blown by the wind
Become thin, long, strands of spider silk garland
Wrapping around the tree
Cardinals and blue jays seeking shelter from the cold
Rest upon its branches and fluff their feathers
Looking twice their size
Resembling color orbs of red and blue
Snow begins to fall
Covering its branches
Icicles begin to form
Giving it a lustrous full look
In the morning, the tree “lights up”
As the snow and icicles sparkle in the sun rays
At night, it glows a bluish winter white
In the moonlight
