I want to climb
the poet tree
and see the world
as poets see.
I want to go out
on every limb
and find out how
to prune and trim.
I want to know
about every root,
the hunt and suck
of nutritional loot.
And what about
the flowers and bark
those beautiful accessories
that make their mark.
Yes, of all the
many trees I know
the poet tree
is the first I’d grow.
Me too 🌳

I love this metaphor
on trees.
Such shame that mine
are lava trees.
