Giant Trees

by Iola   Dec 5, 2006


I toss and turn as I lay,
A dream filled with magic and gloom.
I stare in awe and open dismay,
At the full grown and shining moon.

I look around and search for love,
Each house is visited in surprise.
The winds are whispering to the clouds above.
As I carefully pull over my disguise.

A knock on each door leave me feeling nowhere,
Each turn makes me search even more.
Suddenly the voice of a person who cares,
It's my brother whom I love and adore ...

"The trees, the trees" he shouts out loud,
"Come look how they Pearce through the skies"!
Treetops are breaking through each cloud.
They are growing in front of our eyes!

An eery silence in a forest town,
Surrounded by giant tree leaves.
An astonishing moment and a joyfully frown,
Whilst I dream in this blissful breeze.

    I really like poems about nature and this one is no exception. I find that the Nature section of Poems and Quotes is where some of the best poems are found. I like writing Love poems and find that I incorporate many nature themes into them. There are a lot of poems in the Love section but there are only a few that really shine where in the nature section I find the opposite – most of them are very good. I enjoyed your poem and hope to read more from you in the future. If you like trees you can read a poem I wrote called – The memory of my shadow. The poem Searching also has a nature theme - I wrote this way too long ago when I was a kid and have thought many times to rewrite it as an adult. But somethings are better left the way they are no matter how badly you wish to change them.
