Once a Seed

Once a Seed

From a small seed

I grew

Where summer’s heat

beats down

I stretch my arms

for shade

I am old, yet still I

cool you.

Even though it's winter, it's grand branches reaching tall remind me of what I am thankful for from this tree's just being. And so that's the poem for today-- a winter tree as remembered from summer. I remember its shade in the heat of the summer.

a tree's endurance and purpose — in winter, I remember summer
