Mighty Tree Poem by Heath Gunn

Mighty Tree



Oh tree that stands so tall and high,
your highest twigs sway 'cross the sky.
With branch and bough spread so far,
a trunk encased in knurled hard bark.
Mighty home of owl and crow,
how tall and wide you have grown.
Birds sit amongst your span of green,
I hear so many, yet few are seen.
Your vast domed canopy providing shield,
a thousand twigs, a million leaves.
And after a hundred years go by,
you'll still stand, but I'll have died.
Oh beautiful tree so tall and true,
how sometimes I wish that I were you.
