A Tree That Once Was

Rose Marie Raccioppi

Sitting upon a tree that once was
Looking to the pink and gray capped clouds
Seeing shades of green in trees of many moons
Watching the sway of young bamboo
Hearing the flowing pond
And the sound of children at play
So gentle is the wind
And cool is this evening new
Sitting upon a tree that once was.
