Forever Green

The leaves fall slowly in the wind
Dying quickly on the ground
As slowly now the winter comes
And quickly comes the snow

Death it brings and so despair
To lifeless branches high
They quake and moan with cold dark weight
Forgetting light of spring

But midst this now the Christmas lights
And trees forever green
Leaves a spark remembrance
In the trees cold dark hearts

It is only with the warming sun
And life inviting spring
That tree’s remember the old joy
And spark bursts into flame

Roots shoot down and sap does flow
While buds shoot out and start to grow
But now it is by remembrance
That summer comes again

And it will be forgetfulness
That brings chilling autumn near
Therefore let them not forget
The winter’s icy blast

That when joyous Christmas comes
They’ll not be cold again
That, they through hard remembrance
May be forever green

more than trees i see in this. wow, it's incredible how one fact of a person opens so many new facets and doors. it's more amazing for what it may indeed say- rather than what it does in reality say. incredibly beautiful frank, just wow.

and in the daylight i miss the nightmare- but deathly fear it in the dark of night
