Observed On My Travels

There it sits nailed to its tree

So long after the event…so long

A statement of intent to make

And yet the message was lost to me

It has lived longer than you or I

Vital for our survival…essential

Wounded, yet still very much alive this tree

And how one rusty nail speaks volumes

As it holds it’s now faded ...
