In Response to D'Verse ' Tree Poetry' ~ Do Trees Miss people ?
Trees miss people too
I know this as true
for this year
I have not been
able to be with one
we planted just outside
our small cottage,
I have not been
able to stand close
to touch it
smile at it
feel its leaves
or remove
the extra twigs
that grow
just like that
because I was ill
and on doctor's orders 'rest
Only a few flowers
bloomed
perhaps to tell me
that it is there
for me
no more blossoms
have appeared
I know they are waiting for me
to climb the stairs
step on the terrace
and console them
to speak to comfort
and smile-
I have missed the
communication with Nature
as Nature seems to have missed
me…
O’Dear People ‘ See The Truth
in Trees Flowers
Rain Clouds and Birds-
Who holds their wings
as they fly high
with the unseen breeze
and then with a
Message return to
The Trees
