Trees...in your tears live others like you...

Trees

in your tears live others like you
reflections in a green eye
limpid quicksilver
splitting the day into a million worlds
sees us
 
what we are
as we pass not knowing that
if not for you
there would be no we
 
 
 
 
but the possibilities!
the infinite uncharted depths
in a single drop of you
 
that draw me in
 
pull me down
 
drown me
 
in crystal opulence
 
that will be
 
my undoing

Tree...did you see...




Tree
did  you see the man approaching
with that look
in his eye
that look
that spoke of fire on a cold night
a new shelf in his workshop
shavings for the woman's
flower beds?
Did you know it would hurt
to have the years
cut from you that way
no blood
trees don't bleed
but they weep.

I've heard them.

Might I have heard you
that day
before the thud
the sound
a tree makes
as it
meets its Maker?
