the trees watching us
the trees watching us the trees watching us written December 29th, 2020 we walk down the old logging road the trees watch us pass noting our presence our comfort with each other we make our way to the small stream and sit on its banks listening to the sound as it flows past bouncing over rocks and roots as it goes i sit with you and listen to the sounds all around us and if i listen closely enough i can hear the trees watching us whispering to each other about their day wondering what we will bring as we pass through their stationary world their roots entwined under the ground i feel you beside me my leg resting against yours i take ahold of your arm and lean against you with you, here i am at peace watching the trees watching us. |

All the trees Have a story to tell For year to come The old and the new To the ones not there yet Walk through the leave The trees have left Set on the ground Feel the sun on your face For the tree absorb it's warmth As a blanket keep you warm.

Walking the woods With my one and only Clasped hands swaying As a cool winter wind Sends shivers throughout All that resides within This desolate forest Where once the Green Flourished and thrived Now stand silent sentinels Survivors of flame and frost Tangled branches sprouting New signs of regeneration Two visitors both witnesses To the resilience of nature Turning to look at her She returns a gaze Unspoken recognition How our circumstances Reflect that of carnage Equally beautiful and wild We are all alike it seems Needing to be reborn After suffering calamity She and I more stronger Than before as does Lone bark encrusted Harbingers of renewal Long spilling branches Touched by flecks Of warm sunlight In this cool winter day No words needed As the breeze whispers Encouragement to us all “This too you shall endure” Sudden calm envelopes My one and only and myself And the trees as well Touching the infinite We are resolute in silence My name is MrWrong and I approved this comment
