The Lonely Oak

I saw him from afar, a lonely oak tree, both of his eyes contained such misery. I wanted to know his story,he's a mystery. He looks so sad, I wanted him to be happy, Our eyes met and he beckoned me. I saw him come to life right before my eyes. He was happy again, he took off his disguise, No longer hurt from heartbreak and many lies, He was now free from life’s overwhelming sighs. That lively oak touched me right down to the core We had a bond and friendship, I couldn't ask for more I’m just happy the pain he carried, he no longer bore His compassion and intelligence just blew me away I’m forever grateful that I met him, it was a great day Our connection will last until the end of time and beyond! For he is now out of shell and is now a rare beauty He no longer feels that abandonment is his demise My dear and sturdy oak has nothing to abhor His mission in life is to laugh and just simply play That oak is my confidant, our hearts will always correspond Gregory Barden's"MINUANETTA Contest using rhyme scheme of (at least) AAAAA, BBBB, CCC, DD, E, ABCDE.
