Love Poem: Tree

Tree

Tree

She walks in the fields
Basket in her hands
Gathering flowers 
 Singing as loud as she can

Under a cherry tree
She sits and rest
When she gets tired and 
 Feels the pain in her chest

She loves nature’s beauty
And the smell of the grass
She’s not healthy so  
She can’t move to fast

And she’s so beautiful
And wild and free
Just like the leaves
 On her favorite cherry tree

She cries for  her dog kedo
He past away last year
She misses him so much
He was a friend so dear


If he was here today 
He likes to run and hide
It’s getting dark now 
She’s going in side

She puts on her night dress
And in her bed she lay
She knows a guy loves her
In New York, usa

She  fell asleep dreaming
She was having a cup of tea
Under the shadows  
Of a big Apple tree

She never woke up
Heaven needed her today
The only friend I ever had
Has left my life in disarray


And all her secrets 
She writes in a diary
And when it’s complete 
She buries under her favorite tree

She send me my letters
Writes about a cherry tree
And if you can’t find me 
This is where I will be

I lay on the grass reading
 Of the love she had for me
And she was going to say yes
When I ask her to get marry


There’s a heart carved 
With our names on this tree
When ever I need her 
 This is where she will be

So i will wait under her favorite tree
No matter how long it takes
Because when she makes a promise
She never let it breaks

Her green eyes has  
Shine a light on me
And I will never leave here
Till she returns under her favorite tree
