The night moon shines a glare
through the lonely tree...
It stands alone
as the dark makes it a frightful sight
But frightful it truly is not...
Just as the need of us all,
the trees need some care; some love;
the beauty in nature we don't often see
for our eyes have been blinded to the natural gifts God has given...
So often, we take for granted
the sights and smells of nature;
some even intentionally destroy...
Oh, if the trees could speak!
How they would beg to not be cut down
We should all be like Alice
and be awed by nature as if discovering Wonderland
for it IS wonderland; it is God's creation
Isn't that wonder enough?

I think the greatest gifts that God gives us
all, are the things that most are blinded of.

time of year but some never notice it. you poem
is so true.

Brilliant penning my dear

yes indeed, we all I believe take to much for granted..I adore the beauty of nature but I think this is the artist in me..I hate our beautiful forests being turned into endless concrete jungles..we should respect God's gifts and Mother Earth..Mother Earth allows us to dwell here; yet, we continue to disrepect her with cruelties..Mother Earth contiues to stirke back, but we never seem to listen..powerful piece that sparked many thoughts from me
Congratulations on the HM
..very well deserved
Much love my dear friend
..

Beautiful write. I think you are so right, we take so much for granted in this wonderful world we have as a gift. Truly you hit the target with your words. Pen on fellow poet.

Now that is one powerful piece right here. And yes the tree do cry out not to be cut down, and yet not many can hear them.
Best of luck to you with this.
