A poem about a tree and me

You are a eucalyptus, high in the sky and mighty.
Sturdy to the very taproot you shoot up out of earth from;

Though you may sway. Today has me locked minds 

   with you.

My rehearsal of this does not prepare me. 

The sea eagle passes the blue light in my sights,

A helicopter where the bird had been one day before,

A soaring mass.

 

How are your branches so jut out and your body not arched,

As mine is?

The Blue Gum is foreign to our country. We are still fond of them also. Nice Verse.

There is something truly charming about the eucalyptus tree, it has soothing powers and it's a magnificent sight to see, love this imagery and reflection. 🌹

Once you moved the light in the sky
To a point where my heart overflowed.

I kept dreams in...

Understanding of the sea

I have seen the sea,
Seen it the way it blocks out god

And nurses it's children.

Black swan

A black swan knows what it is.
Knows not to be confused by identifying

Itself with others...
