Bright Tree Poem by Julie Dant

Bright Tree

Rating: 5.0


In a darkening woods
a tree stands...separate...
as if to say 'I shall not blend.'

As night approaches
it does not fade.
Stands as brightly as in the day.

When midnight falls,
the tree, it glows.
'See? ' it says, 'I am brighter than the night! '

'I can shine my glow into the farthest
reaches of this dark forest....this life.'

Sounds like this tree is a fighter that will not give up. It will stand throughout the weather, will shine day and night. A tree that stands! Well written piece. Thanks for sharing.
