The Mirror Tree

The
Trees are
miracles indeed
A strange thing to see
Myriad of reflective leaves
This would be the mirror tree
Thousands of smiles shimmering
Like tiny wonders upon sunny seas
Some would disbound with these
Empirical imaginations to blind to see
Easily dismissing the forest and the trees
Thousands of frowns shimmering
Lay still upon the pragmatic grounds of beliefs
Stepping on the variable shards of shining seeds
While sprouting silverlings fill the pockets of disbelief
No longer looking for the root of truth how can this be
The branching greed still chokes all of these
Thousands of grimaces shimmering
Twisting in the earth
Rotting beneath
the trees
