Trees in Poetry & Prose
Breath Tree, gather up my thoughts bring me together. Through your leaves breathe out the sky. - J. Daniel Beaudry © published in Nature in Legend and Story |
Trees are poems that earth writes upon the sky, We fell them down and turn them into paper, That we may record our emptiness. |
Under the Walnut Tree |
Alone with myself The trees bend to carress me The shade hugs my heart. - by Candy Polgar © Woods I part the out thrusting branches and come in beneath the blessed and the blessing trees. Though I am silent there is singing around me. Though I am dark there is vision around me. Though I am heavy there is flight around me. - Wendell Berry © from Collected Poems (North Point Press) |
