When Trees Cry

When trees cry, the whole world drips in tingly, diamond fingertips which rush down necks and trace lined brows, reminding us that  pain of now will soak the earth with verdant paint, ignite sun’s beams with no constraint; for tear-drops come, and tear-drops go, but clouds will thin for those below.

When trees cry, the whole world drips

in tingly, diamond fingertips

which rush down necks and trace lined brows,

reminding us that  pain of now

will soak the earth with verdant paint,

ignite sun’s beams with no constraint;

for tear-drops come, and tear-drops go,

but clouds will thin for those below.

      Thank you Ellen! I so love trees, too. I love how we breathe out their needs, and they return the favour. What a beautiful picture of how life was designed to work!
