trees announced today

trees announced today

A Poem by kmartell

trees announced today they

will be invisible to touch news reports

find ladies and gentlemen

reaching the middle meadow

 

of their lives

without

trees

not

able to drown the myriad nor purport the breath

of wind

 

 

not

having found where it was voices and more

voices

without tenor nor quickend to the radio

on board car turned loud, turned over in a ditch

the earth moving by the

door, installing 100 mile an hour winds,

flood victims,

feet barely touching

 

the gravel

as the foot leaves the

man and his woman, children

Grown up accustomed to

last messages of trees,

 

down

down

they are moved into a new eternity
