Rowan tree

All things are transient,
The rowan tree grows,
season on season.
Senses the earth breathe
and shift in her roots.
The sun feeds her leaves.
Blossoms fruit to ripe red berries.
Away the leaves fall,
Night sky winters,
And frost snaps at her branches
She will repeat to fade.

 

 



apologies to mr garside , i suspect either he or i or we have used one of these lines before

finally managed the edit , how peculiar this has been

shoeless nay clueless-loved the poem-BUT-and only a small one,would not 'she fades to repeat be better? that said,one funny quip,so to speak-top of the page indicates 'x number of users online'-makes it sound like an heroin addicts site! lol!-only a mad observation of mine(boo quietly!) Stef

I took a look at your work, as we couldn't chat.
This is a beautifully delicate poem, the Rowen being rejuvinating in youthfullness and feminine in it's spiritual aspect. Lovely.

Last couple of days I have been thinking along the same lines...
Lovely imagery in this...
There is an underlying sadness as it can be related to love and loss...

Both feeling a little reflective at the moment, I see.
Nice work,
