Is a Tree a Tree?

Trees are like knots that connect the earth to the sky
As tall as towers they too reach the night sky
The clawing tree branches almost cover the sun
Money doesn't grow on trees but trees are valuable
The leaves rustled in the wind gossiping with each other
Is a sound only a sound if someone hears it?
Whistling wind, rustling leaves, howling owls
Trees are near, trees are fear, beware of what you hear
Let them sing, let them share
Dark blue scars caving in, I know who you are, you're a star
You shine so bright with light green leaves
They're watching us, you and me, are they thieves?
Shoot up to the sky higher and higher
Your shady look, leaves like stars
I think that I shall never see a poem lovely as a tree
See between the dark green leaves, stuck in emotions dark and grim
Eyes like emeralds left and right, see-through souls right and left
Trees are like knots that connect the earth to the sky, as tall as towers they too reach the night sky
