Twisted Forever Together
When we were little twigs sprouting from the ground
I sensed something special in you I had found
Though we were different, I don't mean to sound sappy
Just a whiff of your aroma makes me so happy
As the wind blows your foliage in my face
My limbs long for your branches to embrace
Your curvy bough around my trunk weaves
Covering me with your beautiful green leaves
We live in the woods by sunny day and moonlit night
Although tangled together, touching your bark is a delight
As we continue to grow from our roots to the sky
We stand twisted forever together
Love is the reason why
A True Tree Story
(As told by Hackberry to Red Ash)
PS: As you look at us I hope you can see
God's beautiful creation
Was for you and not just me
