The Tree and Me

I am seated under a tree that sings 
With my guitar on hand over one knee
The tree is singing with me with glee
And I keep on strumming where my heart clings.

A most Wonderful, wonder-filled poem! I am personally haunted by trees. There is, i think, something unknown to us about the spirituality and inner voices/messages of trees. I’ve no doubt the tree delighted in singing with hoj. I’ve writgen several poems about trees.They are my friends, like you. A fine penning. A fav!
