Tangled Branches

Pink and orange colors burst through the tangled branches...
along the horizon... appearing shadow-like and wispy...
with beauty and grace they stand...

They are a shadow... they are a warm cover among leaves...
and thorns...loud and alarming they howl with no end...
but firm and confident they tower above us...

So bold and beautiful... a gentle breeze caresses their limbs...
to and fro... leaving a whisper in the wind...

Awe thank you Njeri. I was inspired by the wind blowing the tree branches outside my window.
