These Giants The trees stood silent wet in state Drooping under moistures weight And I in awe stood before These giants of the forest floor Watching wind bend bough and leaf Bringing phantoms of motif Lifting spirits of conceive From the merit of believe. They stood upon an open age Playing giants on a stage Whispering in a common law The language of forevermore As I, in my wage attire Lit with rage and set on fire Charged into a windmills turn Impaled my lance in naïve learn And as I woke upon the floor I swore to God I’d charge no more. |

deep writing , i love the forest , being raised in the northern lower penninsula of michigan , near the mackinaw bride , the woods were so powerful back in the arly 1900's like the ents from tolkien , the trees were tall as we could imagine , wiped out , but never again , i stand guard at the forsts floor , a knight of nature , wielding a pen twice as mighty as the sword Wolf |
