Trees Poem by Bryan Alexander

Trees

Rating: ★4.5


Tree
hide me away
lend me your
roots
give me knowledge
teach me the truth
patience is a virtue
that I have never learned
I still play with matches
despite being burned
oh great tree
strong and wise
for 100 years
thank you for listening
and giving me paper
to dry my tears
