Excellent write.... Damn it Jason, you are leaving me more and more speechless with each new write you post.

Smiles, Hugs and Love, Willow

Thank you for your comment on my latest write. It means a lot!

I really really really enjoyed this poem and the tree metaphor was brillant. I can see how this could be changed into a sad poem with the falling or burning of the tree so easily.
A wonderful poem!!!!! Keep writing, keep smiling!

I really liked your title, it really brought out the body of the poem. I also liked your metaphorical meaning to this poem. Also liked how you used it as a pun. Brought out a different meaning to the words 'family tree' nicely done.
