Francine Roberts Poet Tetractys

The Trees Dance

Wind,
rising.
The trees dance
to whispered songs.
Swaying to and fro on this summer night.

The breeze freshens the air all around us.
Sweet smelling night.
Fragrant air
surrounds 
us.

Heat 
dispelled
on a breeze.
We sit and watch
trees that are dancing for our enjoyment.

Don Johnson June 18, 2011 at 4:30 PM When tree's do dance no sweet romance, upon the withered bough, and love is sweet, dumb humans meet, but trees don't get the chance, love, Don Johnson
