Trees We Are



Trees we are
to avoid the negativity
no matter where we go
as much as we can be
to enhance our prosperity.
To release the tensions
to recognise our might.
To continue our energies
with all our determinations
and light.
For when we stand through
the days and nights.
We gaze upon the stars
who shine quite bright.
We do not have the eyes
nor tongue.
There are different
ways to communicate where
one might think alike.
Our roots are tangled to the ground
where the grid lines are hidden
sort of speak which may be
out of sight.
For our branches will flap
by the winds in variety of directions
to deflect the unnecessary unwanted
attentions.
There are many of us
even if we’re old,
more will come
who will not be told.
Through the temperature changes
we might feel cold. From within,
we will be warm when
we can no longer hold.
Our history has allowed us to be free.
When we can do more to
diminish the misery.
We use most of our sensories.
To adapt alternatively.
For why we expand lengthly.
To reveal our identities extensively.
For we may not have a gender.
When each and every one of us
will have our own ways to remember.
We may act separately but collectively
we’re together invertedly.
We come through all shapes
and sizes for what we represent
is our own unique mystery.
When we connect,
we will interact accordingly.
As we come forth,
our perceptions will be respectfully.
We will not linger, but wait patiently.
Allowing our branches to grow tremendously.
For the next generation
to wonder unexpectedly.
Our ancestry will reveal where we
need to be uncontrollably.
For our energies to be disbursed quickly.
We will be recognised what we can achieve greatly. As we move on forward with our own integrity. We do not rely on ourselves
to get caught through emotionally.
We build our strength lovingly.
For when we restore,
we share them freely.
We will not hold back willingly.
For a sign to drop miraculously.
To focus on what we need vitally.
We will inform each other knowingly.
For yet, we feel another’s presence,
our detections will raise instantly
with the correct intentions.
