Lean On Me

by TheRevelation   Feb 3, 2009


Reach to me your hands,
lean on me when you, so weak,
cannot stand.

Know that, although you are planted,
to the soiled earth, you can fly,
do not ever say you can't.

In the winter, when leaves flee,
stand together to bring warmth,
so that all eyes may see.

Take my love with you to keep,
deep inside your roots it will stay,
I am here when you may weep.

We are all connected, just as one,
Don't tear us down or it will be done.

**I was watching as I passed the trees and how they lean and reach on each other. Please be aware of deforestation, don't tear all of the beauty away from this world.

    ^^ This is a beautiful way to end it. though they are planted sparsely, they are all connected as one as a forest. Keep it up

    Excellent Job

    Beautiful write...

    "stand together to bring warmth,
    so that all eyes may see."
    ^^ loved the emotion behind these lines... the way the stand bare gives a kind of inspiration...

    Deforestation indeed should be stopped before its too late...

    Nicole,

    a poem about deforestation, a worthy poem indeed. I too like the way that you have described the way you saw the trees, saw their beauty and felt their plea.

    Well done on this.

    Michael
