the tree

you stand gracefully with pride,
embedded in blades of green velvet

your body is growing gray,
yet it is dignified with age

your rose-tinted leaves reveal memories of the past...
and unseen dreams to come

the melodic rustling of your leaves
brings a sweet harmony to my ears

at autumn times...such as these...
it is you that i think of --

A.L. October 14, 1990
