We are but
Trees in forest
Some will fall
By ax others
By saw some
By winds and
Some by pests
Until then we
Give shade air
And beauty homes
To creatures big
And small until
Our day comes
To go and
Make room for
All the others
We are but
Trees in forest
Some will fall
By ax others
By saw some
By winds and
Some by pests
Until then we
Give shade air
And beauty homes
To creatures big
And small until
Our day comes
To go and
Make room for
All the others
Just know that
When you sleep
I am with
You and always
You have no idea
What I see
When you’re asleep
I see you
Unblemished how I
Want you to
Be this pure
Thing that I
Want to admire
And yet the
Closest that I
Get to you
Is in sleep
I’m told that
I write often
About love for
Me love is
Like the wind
Invisible and moving
It makes leaves
Fall in fall
Snow blow to
Drifts in winter
Cools in summer
And brings rain
In spring and
Like wind if
We had not
Love we all
Would be simply
A desolate shriveled
Dry place lacking
Beauty and life
You kiss me
Each time like
It’s the last
Yet like summer
Follows spring tenderness
Turns to heat
Like a warm
Towel after cool
Baths and like
Butter melting on
Warm bread your
Kisses come surprisingly
Like rain showers
In Honolulu sunshine
Bathed yet cooling
Tender and sweet
Like buttery croissants
