there is a reason the oak is called mighty. It is strong enough to carry the burdens of life both its own and those who live in it and use it as a resting place. you have given it its rightful place as the tree with a heart that beats both inside it and in those around it. Beautifully done.

Since the earliest times
Trees have been the focus of religious life
Throughout the world the ancient tree filled
Our soul with inspiration and wisdom
And your brilliant write it�s filled with
Peacefulness and inspiration
Brilliant poetic view of thoughts!!
Sending you Peace Love and Light�..Yolie
