Survival Poem by Kurt Hearth

Survival



With unspoken admiration,
of Nature's enduring strength.
From the mountain's barren crag.
I behold the lone tree growing.

Renegade to the slate gray,
of the roughewn granite features.
Bright greenness of life,
displaying mute rebellion.

Defying unending swirling tempest.
Whipping wildly, bending, twisting.
Standing tall, strong, independent.
With each lull, reaches for the sun.

To the precipice, root's fingers anchor.
Searching deep for sustenance.
Bold testimony, this lone outcropping.
Survival, ultimate goal of all life forms.

As I view this avid display,
broadcast clear Nature's subtle note.
Life so precious, to be cultivated.
Sustained, cherished at any cost.
