Destiny

Destiny

A Poem by SamBug

A lonely tree

stands alone.

It's leaves fall alone.

It droops alone.

It had a family once

just like you and me.

All trees stood together;

tall

and proud.

But they are all gone.

I have come into aquaintance

with this tree.

I named him Benny.

He, too, is destined to fall

like his family.

And that saddens me.

What a beautiful, poignant write.. haunting confessions of the world and the seasons that move on... whether or not we like it.. This cuts deep.

That was very magnificent poem that was environmental, short, simple, out spoken, and sweet with sadness. Excellent job with descriptions all and all with the tree that would one day fall s family did it all had power and emotion in it. Nicely done and keep up the wonderful job.

A unique look at something we all see every day. I hate the areas that were wooded when I was coming up that are now cleared for housing developments.

Your emotions are beautifully portrayed in this. It's a moving piece that by the end it is impossible to misunderstand what you mean by this, the last line is straight to the point and makes it so clear that your not complaining about everything that's gone wrong, your hoping that what's gone wrong already, doesn't go wrong again.
Great write!
