The Poetry Tree

There is an art to writing poetry. And we are blessed to have Treepers here who are able to master this art…and share it with us.
Their Work shines out and illuminates our Tree. Their reflections touch our hearts and give us food for thought.
This thread is a place for us to collect their Work and revisit it again. A place to curate and display these poetic works so that we can find them easily.
Just like a tiny acorn that, once planted, can grow into a mighty tree…the thoughts that our talented Poets share with us, give us inspiration to grow and fortify us going  forward.

CelticTree

I would ask that when you post a Poem that has been posted, to please include a link to the post where it appeared. That way we can take a peek at where it appeared when the Poet originally posted it.
In case you are unfamiliar with how to do this…you simply cursor over the Time Stamp underneath the poster’s name, then right-click on it and click on ‘Copy link’. Then paste it into your comment here, by right-clicking on where you want to put it…and click on ‘Paste’.

……………………………………………………

There are other classic poetic works that are eerily relevant to our current Time. Please feel free to post those as well, if you like.

Visual descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful:
Header Image: A young lady warrior is standing in a field of tall grasses, looking over her shoulder at us. Behind her in the distance, an enormous Tree dominates the landscape. Her long white hair and the tall grasses, are blowing in the wind. Her dark green velvet embroidered tunic has a band of metal armor at the hips, which comes to a V in the front and back. She has metal armor on her shoulders and forearm, and the wind is blowing the long dark green cape that is attached at her shoulders. She is holding a sword in her right hand and in her left hand is a round metal object that appears to be giving off a soft blue glow.
The enormous Tree is in the valley below her and there are gigantic arched structures built into the side of it’s trunk. White birds are flying out from the Tree, towards us. A few small structures dot the landscape around the base of the Tree, along with a forest of smaller trees. Beyond the valley, there are rays of the sun casting light on the Tree and the warrior, as the sun emerges from a distant mountain range. There are white clouds moving through a blue sky.
Second Image: A stone pathway leads up to tall double doors, built into the side of an enormous tree trunk. The doors are arched and covered in ornate carvings. There are a few small points of light in the doors, giving off a slight blue glow. Rays of sunlight illuminate the path in front of the doors.
Third Image: Is a view of a large room with high ceilings. There are cushioned chairs and a sofa with throw pillows. Tree branches cris-cross the ceiling, with a couple of chandeliers fashioned from branches, suspended from the ceiling. There is a large stone fireplace with a tapestry hanging above the mantle.
Fourth Image: President Trump is standing in front of a window in the Oval Office, looking out at the grounds. The view is of his back. His elbows are bent, with his forearms in front of him, perhaps they are crossed…or he is holding something.
Bottom Image: Is Attorney General William Barr, looking forward with a no-nonsense, determined look on his face. Caption underneath: “Pucker up, you sniveling weasels…Honey Badger is on your trail.”

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpYzFxUymy0&w=640&h=360]

………………………………………………………..

Visual descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful:
Top Image: Is a fantasy scene featuring two gigantic trees on either side of a canyon, with a winding river at the bottom. There are two figures in swings, hanging from a large section of tree-growth that spans like a bridge across the canyon. Rivulets of water are streaming out from underneath one of the huge trees, cascading down the canyon wall.
In the distance, what looks like an early morning haze covers the landscape, with the golden glow of sun coming up. There is another giant tree in the distance, beside what appears to be a castle. Smaller trees and dense vegetation cover the surrounding hills.
Second Image: Is a stone pathway leading up to an arched double doorway. The doors are set into what looks like bark at the base of a giant tree trunk. The doors have intricate carving and some small blue glowing lights, embedded in the carved design. In the foreground, the path begins under a tunnel-like growth of trees and dense vegetation…then opens up into rays of light shining down onto the path at the doorway.
Third Image: Is a covered deck overlooking treetops and an expanse of large tree-covered hills. It is a comfy looking open room with sunlight streaming in. There is a green couch across from a metal wood-burning heater. Large bark-covered branches support the ceiling. It is a sunny view, with a lingering haze between some of the hills.
Fourth Image: Is President Trump walking up to the Marine One helicopter. He is saluting the Marine who is standing at attention beside the chopper stairs, saluting his President. The President is wearing his long dark topcoat.
