Tree of Life (c) by Murray Hart
Like a Winter Tree
by Lupe’ King
Like a winter tree
I stand barren and cold…
soaking in the rays of
winter sun.
Cold, wintry, blustery days
cause me to wrap myself up
in its warmth, girded and strong…
I face winter’s storms
Like the winter tree I stand strong
with great divine fortitude,
my limbs are not shaken…raised up-
they gaze into the Face of God-
I cry out, “Holy!”
