The Tree and the Sun
By Brandon Palzkill
A tree stands in a grove,
lonely; longing.
A gently blowing breeze
caresses her weathered bark,
sending shivers down
her soft, willowy spine;
making her dance, hypnotically.
The shivering tree
casts her brittle autumn leaves
upon the verdant bed, below,
and stands naked in the field,
reaching for the sun
for consummation; for warmth;
for winter’s just around the corner.
Two lovers, parted by time;
destined to be together again.
Reunited by the revitalizing spring,
the sun will bathe the tree
in his replenishing rays,
while she dances to the breeze,
in her new emerald dress.
