Sky Watch Friday #5




Trees

Trees are the kindest things I know,
They do no harm, they simply grow
And spread a shade for sleepy cows,
And gather birds among their bows.

They give us fruit in leaves above,
And wood to make our houses of,
And leaves to burn on Halloween
And in the Spring new buds of green.

They are first when day's begun
To tough the beams of morning sun,
They are the last to hold the light
When evening changes into night.

And when a moon floats on the sky
They hum a drowsy lullaby
Of sleepy children long ago...
Trees are the kindest things I know.

  1. Trees are amazing when in Spring they open their green fans and let us see their greens washed by the rain;
    Trees are truly amazing when in fall they show us their true colours ...
    and your photos of today are fantastic all year round!
