Summer Tree Song

Through your elegant verdant veil the summer’s emerald symphony delights your scampering

Custodians whose playful chatter betrays the soft quiet of the morning as they sway rhythmically

In your sinuous branches a rustling metronome engaging nature’s heartbeat chanting her perfect voice

That gently caresses young acorns and flutters leaves in a delicate dance performed in harmony

With the sparkling dew’s prismatic colors splashing the canvas of the new day with the hues and strokes

Of a budding masterpiece whose simplicity of form and purity paints a wishful portrait of our soul
