    Poem Commentary

    The fur trees here are huge and beauitful. Trees of all kinds are Gods creation A blessing to have..

    Just A tree

    Roots firmly planted
    A part of earths creation
    Bold and strong reaching the sky
    Branches are molded with Gods creation
    Bringing birds to it's shelter
    Nestled warm within it's branches cradled
    Fallen by man justified as timber
    Loosing it's natural beauity
    Found in a new homes creation
    A new kind of beauty it takes on
    Housing a family comforts
    Deep with in the ground a new seed rises
    Baring fruit shade protection
    One dies yet another begins
    An important part of our earth
    Upon this earth we must see
    The need for our trees
    Natural yet protected
    Filters our very air
    Holding our earth together
    In the morning when we awake
    A gentle breeze flows with a song of little birds

    :) Big Smile, this morning I heard the prettiest song, I never heard before, there where I'd say 10 birds different singing close, and their stage was the only tree by my bedroom window, ty WS

    Wow that sounds really neat. To bad you didn't record it. How lucky to have heard this..

    It's a primary element of life on the third rock isn't it Betty. Nice insight. It brings up my nagging concern for the rain forest plunder. Even before Sean Connery did that movie I worried about it.It's being confirmed more and more that there are healing agents left undiscovered there which will threaten the comfortably bloated pharmaceutical industry. God help us.. ..

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
