A poem …

 What if trees are the angels?


What if trees are the angels?

Who else could connect

This trashed-out earth with sky?

Note the many fallen leaves

All lit up by candles

Of the spirit-fireflies.

Is it then prayers

When a chickadee vibrates

From every little branch?

A tree is like a rocket

Rendered with Monet colors

And vertical strokes

Heavenward to launch.

By Jennifer Knox
