The 7 trees
The seven trees
Once bare limbed
Gather their summer robes
Swirling around them
As they dance in the wind
Luminescent bursts of light appear
Through hand span sized leaves
Olive green, yellow ochre
Dipping and swaying in the wind
Shadows moving
as the sun arches
Its way across the sky
Leaves, olive green
On grey cloudy days
Yellow on sunny days
Against diamonds of light
Draw a curtain across the busy road
So briefly we see no cars race by
The seven trees
Once bare limbed
Gather their summer robes
Swirling around them
As they dance in the wind
Luminescent bursts of light appear
Through hand span sized leaves
Olive green, yellow ochre
Dipping and swaying in the wind
Shadows moving
as the sun arches
Its way across the sky
Leaves, olive green
On grey cloudy days
Yellow on sunny days
Against diamonds of light
Draw a curtain across the busy road
So briefly we see no cars race by
