Description
While driving through the country
In a cold wintry breeze
My eyes were drawn to focus
On an icy laden tree~
The branches were heavy
As they yielded their load
Finding comfort as if in mourning
Oh, such beauty it bestowed~
Many years the tree stood so proudly
Sharing lovely sights and sounds
But today the tree was weeping
Branches hanging to the ground~
As I gazed and wondered
How can beauty be so sad
Oh, winter tree bless you
Lift you from nature's wrath~
Dry your fallen crystal teardrops
Raise your limbs again restore
All that mother nature gave you
Standing straight and tall once more~
((( It's been awhile since I have written a poem here on Renderosity and Tallpockets asked me if I was still writing poems and I had penned this one on another site and since tis the snowy season I thought I would pen this one here as well..For some reason couldn't get the thumbnail to upload on the main page.......)))
As always thank you for your views and your comments
Hugs and love
Susan~

Oh that is very beautiful! Sorry it took me so long to get here. R'Osity wouldn't let me go anywhere for a day and a half! SQL server or something errors. I wish they would fire that SQL guy. ;o) Anyway, this is perfect for the season. VOTE

A most wonderful piece! I have greatly missed your writings. Thanks, kindly for sharing your brilliance. I hope your health issues are all behind you. BTW - this piece reminded me of the words of the Bette Midler song, THE ROSE .... "And in the spring - becomes the rose." My best, kind soul - TallPockets/brian.

Oh Susan, this poem and this image are just wonderful. IT takes someone who really appreciates the beauty of nature to paint it with words like you do. IT's been awhile and I have loved your writing for some time. Keep them coming please.
