| I never thought I'd see those leaves again I often looked longingly at that bare tree That once stood heavy laden with leaves Framing the flowers, the fruit, the beauty Before it died off into dormancy... I knew that the life was stored deep within Knowing the tree had all it needs to begin again As the resurrection brings forth its mystery I watch and see newborn shoots bring its promise Evoking memories of hope back to me... This age old tree with it's many lessons to bare Represents to me the promise of unfolded future Promises of fruits and flora to follow Reminding me of the ebb and flow of seasons I am grateful to see the sun once more... |
