 * Tree seduction in blue * You stood in beauty, proud and tall, scattering sky fragments of blue into my mesmerized eyes. I leaned against you for a long moment and syntonized my heartbeat with yours. You emitted sighs of pleasure and induced me to hug you tighter pressing into the warmth of your sun-heated skin. You called for the gentle breeze to sway your crown ever so graciously. You seduced me to close my eyes and to set off into the dimension of pure awareness. Absorbed by each other, rocked by waves of unfathomable harmony, we danced as lovers dance. On my hands I carried your gift of love in tiny drops of translucent resin. I inhaled your essence and planted the memory of you to last deep within till our next rendezvous. * |

Oh, dear Margherita, if trees could talk we'd all be better human beings for they would tell us stories of unfathomable glory. But you hugged and you loved. Beautiful.  Helen |

This made me smile as my brother always calls me a tree hugger. I don't think he considers it a compliment but I do. Lovely words from a fellow "tree hugger" Ida |

Maga Margherita que Bonita, it was marvellous to see a post from you today. ~ and what a beauty it is! I am a hugger and lover of trees as well and enjoy reading, collecting, and writing poems about them ~ but that is to be expected, n'est-ce pas? ~ as we are soul-sisters!   Your pen matches the beauty of your spirit ~ and trees!  Angelo Terrestre |

Yo dear Margherita, Somehow I always knew you were a tree person. This is good work. The last trees on our block were removed last year. It was hot last summer, because the trees wern't there. The trees the city planted as replacements will be big in forty years. Bones doesn't like the heat in the playground. He's waiting, and his kids will enjoy the new trees. Love Bobby |

I really love this Margherita. The harmony of tree and sky and poet is made all the more meaningful by the sense of a mutual seduction between them. Even the sky is alive in them! art |

Dear Margherita, I agree with James, that is one of your very best poems. I never thought that a tale about a tree could touch me so. A beautiful touching poem. love. Lindsay |

Living in the north country, I am surrounded by trees and have become such a lover and hugger. My favorite pastime is to watch them sway in the breeze whether with or without leaves. Beautifully written and wonderful sentiment. ooxx Marti |

Margherita, In reading this, I picture you there, Then I picture the paper you wrote this down on, Sticking to your hands, and leaves in your hair and little fragments of bark stuck to your clothes. What a wonderful poem, and poetic picture. Well done. Love W. Tracey. |

To love a tree is an expression of self-love. It's a subjective act from our still point. Beautiful work. Love, Hal |

The last time I hugged one it hurt. I wish someone would have told me that cactus weren't trees. Dear Margherita, you are a loving soul. Richy |
