Sure
A tree line.
Mist in the air.
Ice on the limbs.
Cold.
Your eyes water
as they take in the treeline,
the barrier between fields,
natural, a tall dark line
that makes a statement.
of place and ownership,
sure as a hug in a public place,
or words of love in private.
About this poem.
I have always loved the treelines between fields. This one is not far from my house, on the way to my favorite diner.
Everything has meaning, if we give it meaning.
