Ode To Communicating with a Cedar Tree
Strophe I O ancient cedar tree so grand and wise In BC’s old growth forest ,I found thee I sat beneath your trunk and asked advice ; I sensed the presence of the cedar tree II I received a riposte to my surprise Cedar shouted my blood dead ? Ask my rede ?! Begone two legs I will ...

Under the starry sky, where fireflies light up the dark, A cedar tree, old and wise, tells stories in the park. Its branches, a tangled web, shaped by many years of weather, Hold the dreams of travelers, who rest below together. On the mossy roots, under the green canopy, The steps of those who came before, speak of history. Merchants with...

a flash of light ... thunder clapped like cannons as into the old tree we scurried ... the mouth of its little hollowed-out gut, yawning like some tired old man from a Dickens story ... perhaps the chin of the ghost of Jacob Marley, let loose in horrid fashion from its binding bandages ... the soft pine-needle floor of the space inside was long enough to lay down...

The Old Cedar Tree
Standing tall with its Disfigured branches Looking for attention I guess it just wants to be heard Its branches are green but sometimes turns Brown as it thirsts for water Never getting enough It has lived way passed Its years and has probably Seen and heard it all That cedar must be sending Out bird calls, because it Hangs out with some of the Most beautiful birds in...

A beautiful cedar developed easily, Planted in my garden so peacefully. A striking exemplar in deep verdant green. Keeps my delightful backyard nice and clean. Reddish scented tall upright virgin wood One needs to study its habit and understood. No one should think of pruning without learning One must be sage and be more discerning. Evergreen framework, growing highly incensed, An unpleasant-tasting resin, a...

Log Ride
Timber growing up the mountain roots in silver and gold soil The Indian Queen Mining Company lines shafts of western red cedar, Westerner views hoodoos Painted Desert traveling to mine’s branch Pony express rushes by galloping, “Wow!” Just to see her. Apple dumpling served hot Western Steakhouse flair Tasty yummy dessert warm sunset shows American west, Stagecoach roars by, gold...

A Little Painted Cedar Chest
I can still remember an old beau, A girlfriend wanted me to meet, He was much older than I, But played the piano oh so sweet. He owned a peanut farm A little to the west of my town, Money was not a problem for him, He just liked to drive around. One night he said we'd do something new, He took me...

And his frost-clad lips I gently kissed So mildly radiant amid this place-- That the silvery night grew quite intense Until a gasp rushed from his cheeks. While awakening to each other Our throbs exploded into daybreak… When sweet nectar of fresh beginning ...

Stuck In the Cedar Chest
‘Twas a child’s game of hide and seek, My brother’s turn to count. Where could I hide he would not look, Thus settle our account? Our mother’s room, her closet, No! He’ll check there first of all. The bathroom, No! I hid there once. The chest beside the wall! I climbed inside that pungent box On mother’s quilts to hide, I slowly closed that heavy...

Cedar
Cloud tree, layer tree of magical lands, An underworld, a heaven with different Earths between, Provider of a variety of planes, All floating, suspended, spanning their space. Each strata reaching, stretching, fanning in the slow, slow race, Competing with the trunk as it thickens, broadens, increases in height, And so the enchanted lands widen adding to the might....

How else can a mortal envisage your greatness if not through the envy of the majestic existence of the cedar of Lebanon? Your lofty height is damped in shady foliage And beautiful branches multiplying with long boughs Underground springs direct their rivers all around the place where you’re planted making you greater than all the trees in the field. Thick and solid, wider...

I had nearly forgotten who I was Until I sensed your easy strength and heard the timelessness of your years; Until I caught the sparkle of your lacy light and showered in your fragrance Until I recognized your verdancy jumping the primal circuit....
