Song of the Palm Tree

Song of The Palm Tree 

  The palm tree at the beach
Blossoms by enjoying the water
Supplied by the sea
Its wing - like fronds dances
To the rhythm of music
Played by the breeze
While it hopes to reach the sky

Connie Marcum Wong Date: 3/4/2018 11:10:00 PM First of all a warm welcome to poetry soup. I love the way your poem romances with nature. I do want to help you with one of the statements you make in your poem about seawater. Most palm trees grow in rainforests, but you see palms closer to the ocean more than other trees because they are very saltwater resistant, but they rely on freshwater to live--saltwater will kill them (there are several recent articles about Palm Trees in Florida starting to die because of rising sea levels).
