Trees

Soothing winds creating the dins
That flow through the poplar leaves

Soaking up sun and having fun
With the worshiping by the trees

You hear the sigh up in the sky
As the wind goes everywhere

Stir the branches all big and small
With a whisper of clean fresh air

They bend and sway and seem to say
Glory to the one up above

Perched from flight and out of clear sight
Are the homes to the loving doves

  1. Michael,
    I am visiting your poetry blog, via Poets United.
    I really liked the words in your poem Trees. I could feel the breeze and see the sway, with the imagery created from your words.

    Welcome to Poets United.
    Best wishes, Eileen
