I haven't shed leaves yet
although it is that time
I look at my branched feet
look again up the sky
I, my brothers live in harmony
our branches embrace each other
some kid nailed ceramic sun
we are lucky to have him so near
"watch out, our branches might fall on your glass house"

yikes on that last line....i am glad they appreciate the boy even though he nailed them...
That's great. But I wonder if they're plotting to fall on my house? I don't have a glass house but I DO have trees overhanging my roof. Scary........
The trees liked the hokey glass sun? Glad they are so forgiving...
Very nice write. As trees and other plants are alive, I wonder if they too feel pain. Sad to think they do, isn't it?
Great 55
Lots of things trees can break-I do prefer they remain standing-however they can also provide heat, shade,
beauty- Thanks!
I get the feeling they don't really appreciate that boy.
Very well written poem. I enjoyed reading.

Loved your 55 Gautami.
Clever and Perfect!
Thanks for playing, and have a Kick Ass Week-End
I often wonder if trees communicate with each other about the insanity of humans!!
That was lovely, but the last line was rather ominous.
I love the personification of the trees... lovely picture as well.

Nicely ambiguous. lucky to have the sun near, or that kid

fabulous...

lovely image, poem, and lesson!
I loved the title of this! Nature always gets us in the end, doesn't it?
I liked this a lot - and I think the ceramic sun is lovely.
i know it will be painful, but please drop them on my glass house. i'll thank you up the line.
loved it.
Interesting twist at the end. They are most forgiving trees. Love the personification.
