It's sunset.
Shadows cast across my face,
blades of grass
as tall as an oak tree.
Closing my eyes,
they fall on darkness.

You need not

and in fact cannot

make an acorn

grow into an oak tree

however, happenstance

will help it to flourish.

feathers on her back
and fresh water in her bill
she flies so sweetly
swooping down from my oak tree
to say hi, I’m a cardinal.

Remembrances of Autumn

Shreds of oak tree in faded gold
Drift on my life-scenes, wishes untold.



Crystalline Contest of Rick Parise
from Amelie Mara

Strength.

Strong as an oak tree, she stood.
Facing the setting, summer sun.
Taunting the world to try it's best.
Nothing's bringing her down today.

As the aged oak tree weeps vibrant, autumnal gales the mournful phase begins as acorn teardrops fall

Love In Leaves

So deeply in love,
Wondering what we will be,
   Leaves swarm around us,
     Standing under an oak tree,
   We love in the autum leaves.

I left my languid thoughts cloaked in leaves
dreaming of you 'neath our oak tree.

Shaggy bark oak tree...
Why are you shaggy?
Rough around the edges,
Slick cousins mock you.
Stand proud, elegant,
yet differently, wonderful!

Bright firecracker fanning in bloom

snuggle down its leaves makes me feel gloom.

Sugar maple, foxglove, oak tree too.
Make beautiful shade for me and you
Is that a pear?
To the left, over there?
The buds on her are long overdue.

Summer Abandonment

I carefully climb the old oak tree,
traipsing upon its extended limb.
Hold my breath, counting one, two, and three,
abandoning my perch for the swim.

A mighty oak tree

A birdfeeder hangs on the oak tree.
The sparrows all come there to eat free.
One day a Blue Jay,
Chased them all away.
The Hawk said “Hooray” dinner for me!

My Dear Ms. Teagan

Oak tree I saw that was tall;
Leaves fell from it in the fall;
Big and bold,
Even though old;
Under did play with my doll.

Heart

we carved a heart
in an old oak tree
just the initials
for you and me
the tree still stands
the heart still there
but the love has vanished
into thin air
