    Dual Unity

      Two trees grow closely, side by side Through storms of strife and turning tide Drenched by rains of grief and gall Sun-warmed by bliss that touches all In love and strength, they stand so tall Two trees, yet forest all in all   Two birds within...

    • Wonderful. You never let us down, as readers. This one is a great example of your fluid rhymes, with a powerful message carried consistently throughout it. Awesome, Elke.

      • Thank you so much for your kindness and your appreciative comment dear Styx! You made me smile delightfully! ☺️

    • Talking to trees, and listening to their replies, to their wisdom, is one way to understanding how all life is connected, intertwined, in a fundamental way. It is how we become more humane and how we find love. I think your poem is a testament to this, Elke.

      • Yes indeed, all of life is deeply interconnected. All living beings are deeply dependent on one another. Whatever happens to one species has affects on the whole planet. E.g trees have a well functioning communications system.They warn each other of danger; if it serves the well-being of the entire forest, they even help their competitors.
        ​ thank you very much for your meaningful comment dear Curt! 🌲😊
