Tree Enclosure

Despite their differences

Holding arms of twig through night

Breathing in toxins

Giving out life

Through Darker corners

All in all they lay the same

Extinguished life slowly decays

Rebirth of an ecosystem in dirt

Bright orange through a fall

Darkest browns through the cold

Coated in glitter on wedding nights

Shimmering shadows holding stories

The picnic you had

A first kiss in twilight

Unlike those who sight

Oak bark settles no debt

Never has been any due

Admiring the shades of red within

Embracing green flutter to common ground

They say humans are superior

Only mother nature is truly wise 

Eternal resemblance of beauty

Throughout history and time

Back to life

soothing colors, re-awaking words. I love this image.....roads flanked by trees always tell a story. You have told this one beautifully.
