Poetry In the Trees

I live in the woods among the trees
I have eagles and the fish that swim out to sea
I have a small cabin in the trees
I have birds in trees that are always singing to me

The snow is falling right out my front door
While my wood stove is burning keeping me warm
I type out this poetry in the woods
The air is so clear with the fresh sent of beer

As I open this bottle of beer
To describe the beauty that is here
It would take well over a year
Way more then this six pack of beer that I have right here

It’s so quiet at night you can hear the trees talking
The sound of deer walking by the crackling of dry leaves
You can hear the wolves howling looking for food
All the stars at night are a wonderful sight

There is peace and harmony among these trees
Nothing like the city with cars and free-ways
I sit here alone just thinking about this poem
My heart is at peace each day and every night

For the birds in the trees keep it that way
So I can write this poetry and you will see
The beauty that surrounds me among theses trees
That I call my poetry in the trees
