Prayers of Ancient Oak
ancient oak got on his knees
the best he could considering he is older
and his roots are creaking, and his knees no longer bend
he needed guidance, and he knew where to go.
God heard and answered ancient oak’s plea.
a few months later ancient oak was put into a house.
making lovely banisters, poles, window ledges
thank you! Ancient oak said to God.
he had always wanted to be appreciated.
“look at this beautiful oak flooring!” the new homeowners said.
his prayers had been answered.
