Limbs of Love

The tree of life
in palm of passion
spreads its fruit
far and wide

roots anchor deep
into soil of survival
as branches of history
create memories
that last forever

    Great Take

    on the pix prompt! Glad you won a trophy for this! It's worthy! From beginning to end a noble write! It's not easy to pen a gripping poem in 30 words but you aced it!

    you know something for very fast thoughts, this is fantastic. wish my fast thoughts were this good.. but that's another story.. lol I personally love the second stanza the most. the imagery throughout this piece is excellent . I really really love the first two lines of the second stanza.

    Excellent take on both your poem and the prompt

    good luck
