The January Tree
—
Stripped bare of Summer meaning
Leaving only wood to sway
I wait, endure, while others pass
Along this rocky way
➰
Your feet are fast and fluid
While mine are mired in earth
Your thoughts too fast to capture
While mine are simpler truth
➰
Come spring I will awaken
Then will you stop again?
To see the youngest green of life
Drink from its mountain stream
➰
