Trees move the muse of poetry art Their beauty is a ballad of heart.
Quote poets own.
Trees to me are charming queens of earth Proudly they stand extending their girth When springs young leaves upon branches grow Whose heart could not be moved by the show. Imagine the earth without a tree How we would all miss the greenery Trees have a calming serenity An ambiance of tranquility. Denuded trees standing in the stark Are twilight’s fine silhouettes of art Impressive displays of graciousness Elaborate in their nakedness. Providing a place for birds to rest And raise fledglings in a cosy nest Trees are the stage upon which birds sing Sweetly in dawn’s chorus rendering. Beneath the bark lies a tender soul To us trees play an enormous role They purify air so we may breathe To fend for our need, trees God bequeathed. Down in the deep of the underground Are the roots holding trees firm and sound With nutrients their needs to supply So spring brings leaves that pleasure the eye. Age does not weary trees easily These beauty queens live on anciently They hold secrets that were seen and heard But never do they disclose a word.

Gifts from a benevolent and wise Creator. My wife grew up in a big city and didn't get to see many trees. Now we love to hike in the mountains. Pleasing poetry Belle
