More Than Men

What of these

extraordinary trees

that grow so gracefully

Their beauty

lies in greenery

how it appeals to me

All of these trees

so comfort me

I stand in awe of them

And honestly

their company

satisfies me more than men.

Reminded me of Joyce Kilmer’s “I think that I shall never see A poem lovely as a tree”.

The admiration is well deserved. But - in the final analysis...
Tree and man
Man and tree
They're both for the chop
Even-tu-ally! ?
