in these remnants of roots,
your relevance is a mirror
for my shame
we tore down the tree,
our hands exchanging the axe

And this goes outside the confines of nature alone, but to the true inward workings of society.

Well done, Spiros! So glad to see you this evening! Thank you so much for your lovely comment on my poem.

Oh my, how this touches me, dear Spiros. I always caress the remnants of trees, they truly speak to us of our inadequacy with respect to Nature.

Excellent work.

Loved your poem Spiros.

You got it absolutely right and with a poet's perspective.

Great write!
