Just a tree
A mighty sycamore standing strong
Unmoved as life moves blindly by
Inviting branches like welcoming arms
More than a tree this engaging mystery
How many limbs have come together,
The tip out of reach forever?
Leaves whispering a multitude of childlike tales
Bales, sheltered from the summer sun
Invincible yet so vulnerable, with time,
Imagination's eye glazed by acceptance
And now as it views another brick wall
A part of me is just a memory
Unmoved as life moves blindly by
Inviting branches like welcoming arms
More than a tree this engaging mystery
How many limbs have come together,
The tip out of reach forever?
Leaves whispering a multitude of childlike tales
Bales, sheltered from the summer sun
Invincible yet so vulnerable, with time,
Imagination's eye glazed by acceptance
And now as it views another brick wall
A part of me is just a memory
