sigh
There's a tree in the forest that a-lights on it's own ~
you can visit at sundown and watch them come on.
There is no music playing but the wind makes a sigh ~
and the sound from the branches - a sweet lullaby.
Reminds me of our pine tree in the backyard that hubby wanted to cut down, but after I spent the weekend crying about it, he decided it'd be better to stay *grin* He asked what it was about the tree that mattered so much, and I asked him to be silent, and just listen to it whistle in the breeze, telling stories only open minds can hear... and in your words 'the sigh'......
Debra - you scare me! You take the poem and the tree - post it on Christmas Eve - on your sight - let it be a card for you to share with others! It would be my honor for you to have this!!!
This is soft and beautiful!
