The creators of all things. Love this piece, very creative, well written and
interesting. Love the picture of the tree, it compliments the poem quite well.

interesting shaped poetry
nice flow of the sap coursing through the tree.
My only problem is
(and I understand why you did it)
If God is the roots, that part should be at the bottom.
On the othe hand, he is also the crowning glory,
so I can understand his appearance at the top,
but still. . .

I know what you are saying but without God would we have a tree? Without roots would the tree grow?
Thanks for the review:)

Magical creativeness and great imagination for using your words as a tree that is so graciously high and mighty. Your symbolic imagery created a great reasoning for the fertilizer that is always constant in the dead reads or the Reno renewal of symbolic souls. Thank you so much for sharing this with others including myself. May you have a good one and God bless.

Hi Teresa,

What an interesting personification, saying that blowing leaves are lost souls. However, eventually they settle and also become part of the decay that energizes. This is a great poem and I love the presentation (picture and layout).

Hugs,
Lou

Hello. Thank you for a good example of a verse shape poem, or visual poetry. The picture of the tree emphasizes the feeling of roots reaching down and branches reaching high.

Ms Tab I always enjoy your work and insight into things. I think this was a great look into the cycle of nature with the energizing of the fallen leaves. I have one thing that I did not see how it fit in here.."The leaves that blow are lost souls" It is one of the better lines I must say but it seems a bit out of place for me. Maybe if you would have added a line stating that the tree is like mankind etc etc somewhere in it I think it would have tied the last lines in much better. Just some of my thoughts and sometimes they are confusing as well lol

You have used powerfully descriptive metaphors in this sincere spiritual poem. The nature motif is so effective
because God created all!
