Trees In The Storm

Back and forth they flow

like lovers in the night

dancing to the thunder

as the storm brings on its might.

Bending sometimes breaking

as she brings me to my knees

the tree tops touch each other

saying help me will you please.

The raindrops falling gently

like tears fall from my eyes

clouds take away the sunshine

as they darken up the skies.

The storms of yesterday

have left me with much pain

broken branches in the trees

will not grow back again.
