A Tree...I long to be.

Speak to me, please,
I long to hear,
What the wild wind whispers in your ears,
Swaying close,
You look so happy,
That I wish to be like you,
Free...
Can I not be a part of your circle?
Be close to the sky,
Touch deep purple,
As the twine mate to summon twilight,
Your impassive demeanour comes to life,
I find myself drawn to you,
Your quiet strength,
It shines, it rains you never complain,
Stark against the backdrop of absentee leaves,
You stand alone for eternity,
Your truth never changes,
Free...
The freedom of being born a Tree.
