One of my favourite trees Duncan, they are such a lovely sight as there leaves go copper. Delightful poem, and yes these trees could definitely tell some good stories. Loved it.

I like this Duncan. Poetry should be spiritual and capture the essence of humanity. You do that well with this. What is great here is the line 'A comforting sight for onlookers' because it is the only indication of an outside force (or objectivity) . It is totally at odds with the rest of the poem which is concerned with description. Yet in that one line you give meaning to why the description. what is particularly good is that you do not seperate it from the flow of the poem and so it seems incidental and yet is essential to the whole piece, because others are also a part of us.
Wonderful poem mate!
