Mighty mane of leaves
A massive trunk with strong limbs
Imagery of strength

paladin

Yes, it is mighty,
And yet, it can be felled completely by a simple fungus.
More to this write than just thoughts of a tree.

Beautiful! As the Oak trees, which have inspired many a poet with their royal magnificence.
You said it in a few words, very efficiently.
Love, Margherita

Yes, the mighty oak Robert.
Said so well in this form you are known for.

paladin - very well done. Can you imagine what events old, wise trees have witnessed? I often think about that though it may sound strange. Enjoyed. Chris
