Poem in the Feelings Collections As a member on the Cherry Blossom Festival Committee, I recited this poem in the 1990 for the planting of a Cherry Blossom tree planing in Washington, DC
Tree If I could be Something everlasting It's nothing I Would rather be Than being a tree A tree that stands tall For all he world to see A tree that with each season Changes come to be A tree that Sheds its greenery Whose leaves let you know The coming of fall A tree that's been here forever And sometimes out last us all A tree that can shield one from the sun A tree upon Which hearts are drawn When a couple Wish to become one A tree that stands tall For all the world to see Oh yes, a tree Is something I wish to be

I love trees and they are symbolic of all I want to be - deeply rooted, standing tall, inter-connected and providing shade for others. A lovely write!
