Trees
17 March, 2007
Author: Barbara Goodhew
Some trees like humans are strong.
Some are weepy.
Some are fragile.
Some are young.
Some are old.
Some are beautiful.
Some are withered.
Like us they all need and want nurturing
and love to grow.

Bipedalguy (4.156.51.84) -- Saturday, March 17 2007, 01:25 pm This poem, as it's shown here, resembles a tree with the top line spreading out like the limbs. The middle six lines, each of which has 3 words, form the trunk. The last sentance forms a spreading root system, the most important part of all. |
