The smell of rain still clings To the grass beneath my feet Cool breezes blow my hair And songbirds trill in sweet Though you are no longer here I carry you in my breast Deep within this heart, my love, Where passions lay unconfessed There upon the hill I find The rock where we first joined Where love became our refuge From our souls guilt purloined Above the rock it still stands tall Whispering leaves welcome me The tree that knows the secrets That we wrote into our poetry I lean back to feel its warmth Feel its wisdom envelop me And know our love lives forever Here, beneath the dreaming tree |

I love your dreaming tree. I have a dreaming beach where I sit and think of what was, could have/should have been and only the ocean knows my dreams. Very nicely done. You have brought back some memories. Happy New Year! |

A tree holds such magic, it seems...sometimes the strong answers to life, and, its secrets. This was beautiful! |

Beautifully written, Sharon.....I think everyone should have a dreaming tree. My parents had a giant pine tree in their backyard and we used to call it the money tree......of course, we never harvested anything from it but pine cones.....but we still joke about the money tree.   copyright2001 Lyra Nesius |

Thank you all for your kindness. I heard the words 'dreaming tree' and it stuck in my mind and wouldn't leave so I had to write it out! |
