Two Tree's in a Field
by. John V. Kiger
Two trees apart
in two separate fields
one blossomed with pedals
delicate with grace
one flourished with leaves
grounded strong and green
both trees magnificent
in their own separate ways
yet only a few feet apart
divided by fate
an old wooden fence
with not a sight of a gate
Two trees apart
in two separate fields
from distance I stood
admiring the differences
in awe and thought
both stood tall and pure
both had their own place
not a single similarity
from trunk to sky
yet so close to touch
extended in branch
just within grasp
Two trees apart
in two separate fields
the closer I approach
the changes appear
along old wooden fence
in the middle field
both trees seemed to smile
in awe I wonder how
until I was only a few inches away
I noticed the reason why, ever so clear
it brought to eye
the happiest of tears
Two trees apart
in two separate fields
taught me a lesson
brought me a tear
for what I saw I could never had hoped
beneath old wooden fence
an epic tale spoke
a tale of old
a story a new
for when I looked down
I saw both roots spiraled round
each grasping other
mingled and bound.
