Title: Beautiful Cedar
Post by: Al Moak on May 01, 2003, 10:08:19 AM
Here's another one, small as it is.


BEAUTIFUL CEDAR[/b]

A Cedar tall and green is standing,
Symetry with fullness blending.
Of all the landscape it is king
O'er houses, trees, and everything.

Its pointed tip and tapered sides
For all the branches sun provides.
Yet hidden ports, so highly blessed,
In glorious safety birds may rest!

We who walk in its' shade so cooling -
Thankful we, its' beauty seeing -
Thanking the Artist Who makes it so -
Thankful for love that makes it grow!

-Alan R. Moak

That's really nice, Al.  If only I could write poetry!

 :-\ A poetry is very strange to me. It is like a dance of words.

I like this one Mr Moak.

Thank you so very much, Mieka.  And thanks to the rest of you also.  You're making a mistake, though - you compliment and I bring more and more!
