Climbing Trees ~ Stanza I

Severus Alexander

From high up in tall, wide trees

Whose bows, unmoved by the strongest wind

Shift restlessly with the breeze

I can hear the chimes softly

Distant, and the birds on the yard below

    Beutiful poem. Pretty and graceful!
    I have a question. How did you change your profile pic?

  • Severus Alexander

    Thank you! A poem in of itself, and hopefully the first of more installments to come; I plan to write one like this whenever I climb a tree. As per your question, go to "public profile," then "edit data," and "user photo."

    As a child I spent much time in a tall wild cherry tree. Mostly when I was sad. Perhaps we are closer to God there. Nicely done.

      Thank you. I think it is easier to be closer to God when one is farther from distraction. Perhaps, this is because we can find God within ourselves more easily in solitude..
