watching dark clouds gather
the poem reached within me
describing a tree’s cognizance

rooted as it was, unable to run away
shuddering now in expectant fear
watching dark clouds gather – thunderstorm?
or fire?
upright joy
original poem by mjNordgren

imagine then her excitement awaiting the delivery of her niece’s
loaned upright and exuberance when it arrived to fit against the angled wall
of her new, happy home
