Oaken Knight
A Poem by
Cobblestone Traveler
You'll be strong for me
Approaching the old oak from my younger yearsYou've grown tall and loom high above my world I trace the thickened bark with a trembled sigh And slowly sink to the ground, allowing weakness Vulnerable and shuddering in energetic transfer You take me in and your trunk radiates warmth Channeling my breath throughout your roots My shell at your base, my soul in your chest Sustain the power for a bit longer, my friend I can grow another day; for today I'm yours

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it!
This is a wonderful piece of writing! The only thing that I would recommend is adding a comma at the end of your first line, to break up the flow a little bit, as both of those lines are quite long, but apart from that, keep up the good work!

Was my pleasure and you are welcome.
I'm awful at reviews, but I enjoyed this too much not to say anything. This piece is very relatable and sweet. "I can grow another day; for today I'm yours" so beautiful. Great poem, I mean it.
