For Poets and Story Tellers United ~ Trees ~

 

TREE CHANTS  from The  Novel  (Unpublished Yet) Mystery of Pencileeze Forest


Better a Tree than a fee
  Better a fruit than a shoot
  Better an apple and a bee
     Better a seed amid the root


Better to be in time
 than to be a left out
Better to be on  main
than  go round about


Better to be on paper than on table
Better to be sharp than unstable

First and last lines, the perfect bookends for this poem.
