Tall Trees
Nowadays
tall trees mean wealth.
The trees havn’t been felled
for profit.
They’ve been allowed
to remain
to shelter and protect
select humans.
With luck
sometimes you’ll find them
even now
standing tall,
filtering sunlight,
bestowing blessings.

This is a good poem about tall trees.
I feel like I won 😀
Thank you for writing this blessing.
Love this, Pat! It reminds me of Patsy Corns who painted pictures of the old trees of Kentucky.
Tall trees – such a treasure!
I couldn’t agree more!
Shew, I agree so much. The start is wonderful if not chilling: “Nowadays/tall trees mean wealth.” A lot to think about there.
