The Mighty Oak

I stand alone, a wise old tree Natures' Watcher, forever, watching Me My roots are deep, my wisdom much Surviving the sun, the storms & such As earthly season comes and goes Roots grow deeper… foliage grows Leaves & blooms, sunshine kissed Heavens’ rains, my bounty exists Natures' Watcher providing every need Sunshine, rainfall, night for seed Create, extend and give forth life Thru myriad of trials and withering strife Roars of thunder, bolts of light Rainfall, sunshine bring forth life To grow, to blossom, if we listen Carry wind, my only mission Winds of time, forever survive Willowing branches my wings, Leaves, born to fall, become the earth Never at rest…this wise old tree…forever evolving
