winter trees


capillaries form
in the softly moonlit clouds
and weave together
merged into the fibrous veins
that reach deep beneath the earth

    This is an excellent write. I also like the background you have. It's very chic. So is the poem.

    very good

    This one I like very much, it seems very cosmic, saying a lot with a few words. Where else can I find good poetry on this site? I don't want to endlessly read about broken heart poems but am looking for substance.

    Yes the trees are very much alive, even in winter. This is an awesome poem. Strange to visualize trees and actually blood with capillaries. :0)

    So many people see a tree in winter, devoid of leaves, and that is all they see...a naked tree. Your poem shows us with vivid imagery, there is so much more below the surface. Hmmmm, I wonder if this could be applied to other things as well?

    Cheers,

    You always have such visual backgrounds to go with your works. It shows that you feel your writes. One of the things I enjoy about your works.. Pokes her nose out.. Take Care, Catressa
