The Tallest Palm Tree
Look up to the majestic sight
Towering canopy of green
Wide-reaching fronds
Bold, confident, courageous.
A tale thrilling to tell
Hurricane eruptions,
Of seasonal disturbance
Bold, confident, courageous.
Morning sun-rays filter now and then
Blocks of color
Slight variations of gray
Stand bold, confident, courageous.
Baby palm look up to the majestic sight
Amongst others on sandy beaches
Aspire to tell stories of survival
Stand bold, confident, courageous.
New plantings, appearance
Vascular tissues, circular vessels
Baby palm trees grow tall
Bold, confident, courageous.
A tale waiting to tell
The next seasonal disturbance
Stand bold, confident, courageous.
The tallest palm tree
Vie survives
