Occupied Poem by Douglas Scotney
Occupied
Not clear from walking under a tree in a bug-proof hat,
or, particularly, in a bubble,
but plain, from doing so and brushing your hair on its leaves,
is that a tree is a house occupied to the tips of its eaves.
Tree is a house occupied to the tips of its eaves. A tree is house of many birds, insects and leaves. This poem is brilliantly penned with interesting perception.10

The word 'eaves' used very tantalisingly and beautifully. From context it may mean leaves as well, but not really. Hat can be the roof on top of the walls. The title and the illustration are evocative.
