How do I love trees? Let me count the ways…
I love trees from the depth to the breadth to the height
A home for the squirrels and creatures of flight
A camping trip warmed by the grace of their fire
Childhood memories of worn tire swings
Family nature walks, counting the rings
Resting in shade, the poets’ inspire
All the graces of all kinds of trees
Cleansing the air, embracing the earth
Charming us all as they sway in the breeze
A world of trees to enjoy as we please
A life without trees would be dearth
Of hammocks, and love notes and colorful leaves.
