I enjoyed your imagery and how you managed to maintain it throughout the entire poem. Seeing more than a piece of woods and expressing it in a poem is certainly a gift. The flow was easy with good rhythm. An enjoyable piece. . Robin

Comment from Rondeno
Awesome! This dignified and eloquent lament hits the spot. Trees are not only beautiful - they have the nobility and venerability which only great age can bestow. Once again, your deep love of Nature shines forth like a beacon. And PERFECT choice of image - tree in the foreground, man's handiwork lurking in the distance ...

Thank you Roneno. Your review is inspiring.
Comment from Johnny-artist
"The trees swayed in silent horror,
Where for ages they stood
As the earliest explorer,
Chopped down the virgin wood
Now kindling for fires,
Lumber for lofty spires."
Certainly it could be sad to see a tree lose its location. Believing that its progress~a place for all things to occur...possibly having fond memories. Giving one some valuing of a sentimental kind~going with the tide of faith.

Comment from 4tulips
I can see why and how your imagination would work in high gear for a poem starting with this photo. It does look like a big insect. Your poem was nicely written and carries a message to all about our natural resources that we seem to disregard without even thinking twice about it. Sad, very sad for us to be so wasteful. I enjoyed reading your poem.

Comment from Thomas Raine
Was just reading an article in National Geographic about some of the largest trees in the world, and how at the beginning of the 20th century people had begun chopping them down, but they were so large it was too time consuming, and they just left them behind. Now, of course, those trees are protected, but it was an interesting bit of historical reading.
Trees, as with all nature, are a precious commodity, and we must learn to live in balance with life on this world.
Thanks for sharing, my friend,

Excellent poem. Good rhymes and flow of rhythm. Descriptive with vivid imagery. Creative and follows through on the theme of an ancient tree. Nicely done.

Comment from mystery poet
I have much admiration for your storytelling finesse
using inanimate objects such as the remains of a tree.
For them, we would not have adequate oxygen to breath.
Helen SR wrote a poem which I read and memorized in
Elementary school. That coupled with a love for climbing
them has given me respect for there magnificence. Thanks!

Comment from ZaraJ
I love this. It flows very nicely while still maintaining a powerful message. Referring to them as "Ancient living souls" is such a beautiful description. How often we forget they are alive and breathing. Very well done.
