April Poem: "Tree"

Here's an extra poem, prompt from a journaling ebook called "Creating Spring."




Tree



My leaves change color
Others have noticed

In the winter
I have no leaves at all

Rocks surround my roots
I stand here in the driveway

Unnoticed, most of the time

The wind blows me
Gales assault me

Still, I grow
A little more every year

You don’t see me
But I’m here anyway

A lonely tree.
