My Monday Metrical Musings #275

green leafed tree

Tree

You stand tall
Impervious
Unswaying
Stoic

How do you do it?
Me I’m in awe
Me who’s always vacillating
Unable to stand tall

Like you!

Teach me O Mighty Tree
How to stay rod still
No matter the storm be
Immoveable Strong

You stand calm
Resplendent in the sun
Unmoved by the buzz
In this city island chaos

I’m frazzled
Unsettled
Frentic
Bedazzled

Unlike you!

Think I’ll come to sit
On the stone bench
At your feet
To learn each day to be

Like you.
