The Old Cedar Tree

Standing tall with its Disfigured branches Looking for attention I guess it just wants to be heard Its branches are green but sometimes turns Brown as it thirsts for water Never getting enough It has lived way passed Its years and has probably Seen and heard it all That cedar must be sending Out bird calls, because it Hangs out with some of the Most beautiful birds in the world That flocks to it and It babysits JULY 29, 2021
