I WAS ONCE A MIGHTY TREENOW I HAVE LOST MY LEAVES.
Shed no Tears For the Leaves
have Finally Fallen.
WHO WILL HOLD ME NOW?
I am going out on a Limb now
I am leaving my Heart to Love.
For when you see a Leaf fall
Remember
My Heart has fallen for Love
For what really hurts now
Are the Cares left by the wayside.
Not given to anyone.
My Soul is with God now,
He holds me with Love
I am not by the wayside,
For I was Lifted above.
A Poeatreeman
Whom ever Leaves Care,
By the Wayside
Will Pick Up Sorrow Instead
Whom ever Holds Love,
Will Feel Sorrow's Tears
Whom ever Cares,
Will know the Pain and Joy
Whom ever Heart is Filled with Love
Will Hold The Jewels For Years.

AN OLD OAK TREE
You are
a Young
Flower
I am
An
Old
Oak
Tree
You are
Blossoming
While
I am
Withering
Away
I had my
Spring
When
I Blossomed
too
Yet
my Branches
are
not as New
My Roots
are Firm
Though
the Soil
is Loose
I will Fall Soon
be
at your feet
So Remember
when
I Stood
I
Tried
to be Straight
Perfect
I Was Not
For the Soil
was
not Great
I had my Falls
Limbs
were
Broken too
Yet
I Held Up
When Others
thought
I Would not
The Ground
is Opened
I must
Return to all
Shed no Tears
For
the Leaves
have
Finally Fallen.
Dedicated to Naomi Stansfield
A Soft Soul
A Poeatreeman
When I was
Young
I Tried
to be Straight
I Grew as Life
Would
have me Stand
Yet
I Stood Up
gave it a Hand
I Thank God
For
Letting me Sow
I had the Seasons
To Change and Grow.
A Poet's Note
FORTITUDE
Do Not Say
Timber Yet
I Am Not
Ready To Fall
Do Not
Cut Me Down
For
I Stand Tall
If
You Want To Grow
Cut
No One Down
Then
You Will Stand Tall.
