Just Tree
This tree
Peeking through my window,
where I sit by my desk…
Have you met her too, somewhere?
She’s gone from a bright green
To a sunny yellow
Look what a few months can do…
She inspires me as I watch,
Fluttering yellow leaves
Hanging by her branches
Against a crisp, blue morning sky.
I try to practice. Seeing.
Seeing her
As “just tree”.
So far, she is still
Yellow tree,
Inspiring tree,
Fluttering tree,
Lovely tree.
This tree,
I wait and watch,
If she will ever become
Just, tree.
