Over Coffee

Just thinking, I suppose.

A cold wind murmurs through the eaves


And tells its secrets to the trees


Of a summer so quickly gone


As I sit and wait for dawn


 


To break across the morning sky


And I sip my coffee as I ponder why


Those barren trees don’t wish to know...


They flail about and struggle so!


 


I could learn so many things


If only I could find the means


Of how to listen as seasons change


The lessons just beyond my range


 


Of secrets lost in history


And how they may apply to me


Through all those countless yesterdays


That led me where I sit today.


 


END


 


“Over Coffee”

I thought this was wonderful, old trees have a life of their own it seems, beyond plant life.
