Plantae

Up above your chipped trunk and concrete base
You reign gnarly and strong
With your tangle of branches

You are such a witchy tree
I can't help but watch you
Holding court

I see you reaching out with those thin fingers
Through the night sky
And I smile

  1. HI Maggie,
    Thanks for your comment on my blog today.
    I am not familiar with the River of Stones writing project, but it looks like you've gotten a lot of material written.
    I enjoyed reading your poems here. Keep up the great writing!
