Trees ...A Poem by stranger-n-lifeTrees tried so long to save mankind from ourselves ... they make the very oxygen of life ... but say little , so men mostly don't stop and listen to the wisdom the wind whispers in their branches ...As if with words your symbols true they tell a tale, known to a few... to me they 'speak' of the stalwart mind in face of folly, man-un-kind... and who be sad? as stand and die in multitude astride the lie? before the flood for love of life, for sake of man... before we die? How can the people still not see, does it not say our misery? we , blinded by the light , not chance, A message bids us join the dance- to know what is not, now, to love Pied Piper sets the tune, no dove... and few resist but poor and lame alone desist afore the flame... The trees remain and bid that love can never die as is above. © 2010 stranger-n-life |
