Trees- with their branches reaching out to the Lord
 emphasizing  the yearning and fears of humankind
 to not reach perfection without the guidance
 of the outstretched hand.
 Trees of spring
 - illuminated symphonie of blossom's songs
 whereas in winter,  chrystallized beauty of white
 embracing sparkling arbors
 like wonderous jewels.
 
 Trees
 - The Lords words whispering silent psalms
 beneath  leafy cathedrals of glistening shelter.
 Trees
 - guardians of nature,
 harboring within a veil of forced silence
 fruitlessly watching fragile futures.
 Breath of life ..
 on the verge of destruction
 So help us God!
