Trees are Silent

Trees are Silent

A Poem by Heather Clayton

Fingers treading lightly on
the windowpane
shielding myself from the sun
I have nothing to gain
My head bent 
like a bird
I see you as a tree or a stump
but there is no word;
I await your arrival
looking out
I hear your call
I see you shout,
but as a tree
you are silent.
Do you hate me?

No, you are vacant.
Far away from me.
