Pillars of the Forest

Daylight seeps through
Moss covered towering trees
With their foliage of green
In photosynthesis please

These pillars of the forest
In attention stand
En-mass they cover
Natures land

Maples and Pine
Birch and Oak
Majestic they are
In wooded cloak

These perennial gems
Our woody plants
Please respect them
It's not much to grant
