Today I am a tree, I stand here before you for all to see
My years of standing in one place has meant that I have a lot of memories
of what was, and can ponder on what will be
I know that as the seasons come and go, my history
is in plain view for all to see
my wounds have healed, and many of my arms have been broken
or been taken from me, yet I am patient for I know
that with the passing of time I will return to the earth/ Universe
Meanwhile, I will stand and wait for someone to notice me
I was strong and beautiful in my youth, my outer body is now
textured, my open wounds portraits of my many experiences
I salute you dear friend as you pass by and give thanks
that you did come by to spend time in my garden, my patch on this Universe.
May many blessings of the day shower your life with joy and happiness
Please come again, there may be less of my physical self,
but, always, my spirit will be here to greet you.

This is beautiful, both tree and image. Good morning to you. With the warmer temps, I got out early with the camera.
I was drawn outdoors myself, alas, it was rake and pick up leaves time for me.. I did take my camera later when out with the dogs.. but…..however, I’m told it will be nice till mid week!
I did photos early and then got out the rake. We finished raking the leaves today. Yay!
Kudos… I still have corners to get at.. but….. I’m hoping a friend will come with a blower..
I have an old blower but once the pile gets too big, I have to switch to a rake.
❤ Beautiful thoughts. HUGS
Good morning!
The Liberty Statue Tree!

Thank YOU,, waves a cheerful early morning greeting across the miles..
It looks as if the tree is holding up its hand. Expressive words 🙂
Hi there, waves a good evening smile your way!!
