There's Joy in the Trees

·J. Maw

(dont cut them please) There are birds chittering to the leaves long gone and past, all the vibrancies between the summer of ever-last. Then, the silver stripe of winter pushed fall jauntily out the door, The rush of bitter cold I love so much jettisoned to the floor. Far along the the snow-smeared road I go; I walk the smokeless sky below and sing the forest song we know. The pond by highways' blissful side sends ripples like hidden clefs of soothing voice, they hear the pitter-patter of my feet that suits my way of choice. And when the animals, shy despite their wily grin, soon join with me to my chagrin. The melody that settles in of dusty teardrop watermarks of footsteps fallen in the yard. The telltale sign, the happy shard that holds me in regard.

I care not so much what I am to others as what I am to myself. Michel de Montaigne
