************************************************ Arms as old as time Reaching upward toward A sky as blue as tomorrow She had stood for so very long Her limbs bent and gnarled Still she reached toward heaven Basking in each new days sun Drinking in the precious dew That touched her gently each morn Clothed in moss and lichen Ragged as any street urchin could be Still she stood proud and tall Arms stretching toward tomorrow As she had stood over generations before Through their happiness and sorrow The inspiration oak still stands Holding our dreams in her tired old hands
