THE CORNFLAKE TREES
Bursting From Small Seeds...
The Lives Of The Tall Trees -
They Grow In The Sunlight...
The Cold Makes Them Grow Bright -
Dying At First Glance...
They Give Us A Last Chance -
To Stare At Their Splendour...
No Matter Your Gender -
You Must Be Moved By That Silent Display...
When Death Is This Beauty...
The Death Of A Tall Tree -
When Winter Arrives There Is Nothing To Say.
But On Closer Inspection...
Trees Have Resurrection -
When In Spring Time They Blossom And Bloom In The Fray...
So Joyous In Learning...
The Trees Are Returning -
The Cycle Of Seasons...
Full Circle Are They -
They Smile Within You...
And Always Continue -
For Now And For Always...
For Us All -
Come What May.
