Two Different People

Sometimes we’re driving down the Highway
My lovely wife, and little old me
And as we drive upon these days
Always I glance at all the trees
As trees they do dance with the breeze

My lady always looks at me
She really cannot understand
She says to me ‘They’re only trees!!!’
She never looks at trees as grand
To her it seems they are just bland

I guess the family thinks me strange
They love their Games, and their TV
But me I guess I’ll never change
I’m sure I’ll always just be me
A dreamy man of mystery

She lives her way, and I do mine
She does love me, and I love she
And still I think she is divine
Though on some things we’ll not agree
There’s always love twixt her and me

Ah, I get this. When I brought my husband into a forest once I said, "Let's buy this. It's like a forest. Don't you love a forest?" and he said truthfully, "I do not know. I have never been in one before." Now he realizes the savvy-ness of my suggestion. This is on my FAV list.

I know what you mean! I made my husband stop just so I could close to this one tree, see what the branches looked like and touch them. So glad he played along. Then it was like God blessed me, also, with a whiff of honeysuckle. :) Have a great day, friend!

Hi Kim, your hubby is like my wife. she always caters to my wishes. But she cannot understand how I have this thing for nature. She is very logical. Thank you for your kind comments, my friend....Peter

You view things through a poet's keen eyes Peter. I can appreciate great cooking but I can't cook well. I am sure your wife feels the same way about your poetry. I feel the same about trees. This poem is lovely and a poet's poem! : ) xxoo
