Pine Needle Enlightenment

I am the pine tree
not this individual 
pointing to the sun

I am the planet
not this individual 
reaching for the sun

I am the cosmos
not this individual 
orbiting the sun

I am the I am
not an individual 
bathing in the sun

This one left me with some questions so that makes some good poetry. I enjoyed reading it. Those pine needles are so useful, beautiful, and such a lovely shade of green. Thanks for sharing it and for visiting my work. Sara
