A Single Tree
Steve L. Siegel
August, 2015
-:-
Up on the upper Hoh River there is a trail
Only two and haft miles long, at end of trail is a tree
Were it has turned into a cross all by Gods own hands
People have been coming up there for years to see.
-:-
There is no pastor up here
Only a log beam made into a bench
Where people come pray or meditate
Some getting closer to God within the tree’s reach.
Myself it was time for self-reflections
I knew that for me it was time to grow
Where I learned that a little rain must fall
Some-times for Jesus, so that I can learn to be the show.
-:-
I sure don’t know why this tree grew this way
By the laws nature it should not have
Nothing has ever hurt this tree
No fire or lighting has ever have.
-:-
I do truly believe that this tree
Has seen more people turn their lives around
Then any church or pastor on any Sunday
Maybe, that’s why God put this tree in this piece of ground.

Author’s Notes
This tree is for real it is a big spruce somehow instead going straight up
It has two branches that forms a cross.
It at Olympic Nat, Park, Hol campgrounds
In Olympic National Park in the state of Washington,
there is quite an unusual phenomenon.
The state as a whole does not get much rain or snow.
However, here is a fact I did not previously know:
There is a spot in the park where it rains a hundred inches or more.
See thick moss on the trees when you take a tour.
Certainly, it rains more often in the spring.
Rain every day in the season is the usual thing.
You can feel the damp moisture in the air.
In the summer, it’s like a steam bath everywhere.
There is plant life growing that is unique to the area.
It is one of the more fascinating places in North America.
