A Twilight Of Trees

by J. Allen Wilson — Read all 1,629 poems by J. Allen Wilson

Monday, May 10, 2004

 

A twilight of trees,


Give unto a silence golden,


which meets the special needs,


of the tender hearts spoken.


For they bequeath the dreams of scarlet lilies


Which bloom majestically upon a grassy hill,


Beholding to all their radiant, but silent glory,


which replenishes the sodden soul its fill.


For this twilight of trees has granted splendor,


And cast a shadow not on this heart so tender.


So I shall lie me down on this misty hill,


And sleep the faithful sleep of angels,


For I have seen His glory…felt His love, and have drank my fill.

I love trees too and to be able to create a poem in their honor is a fete made for immortality. I have trees here on the property that are poetry with every sweep of the land.

Enjoyed this one.
