A Tree Is like a Frozen Dancer

April 26, 2017

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is trees in honor of Arbor Day, which falls on April 28.

Today’s poem is an Arbor Day poem about the beauty of trees.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

Yours,

Nick Gordon

A tree is like a frozen dancer,
Redolent with grace,
Branches poised dramatically,
Open arms in place.
Revel in its patient passion,
Durable delight,
A deep and quiet ecstasy
Yearning for the light.
