Tall Pine

Published by Family Friend Poems June 2008 with permission of the Author.

Upon her crystal shores... waves of shimmering light.
Part of a larger symphony near water's edge.
Under a tall pine, a leaf gently spirals to the ground.
A small note...unheard by most. A piece of that song.

A myriad of light from so far away...but really not so far.
A glimmer highlights the base of the tall pine.
Blending with the fallen leaf's song,
A neighbor's melody of change.

A different forest. A new time.
Within the sounds...a symphony.
Within the rhythm... a remembrance.
A note heard by those who choose to listen.

Touched by a myriad of lights.
Reflecting upon a small leaf.
Sounds blending under a tall pine.
Dancing around a tree...upon crystal shores.
