Language of Thou Stars

are you my symphony?
I can hear your words.
Your endless heart,
Your silent glory,
Your ancient misery.
When you were just a sapling,
young and new.
but now you know it,
your wizened branches.
I wish you knew I loved you so.
I can see the comets of years,
Imprinted upon thou wood.
The earth shall spin.
Births and deaths.
Weaving a story.
All these years, you have watched.
Sharing your wisdom as we grow.
Your leaves are gone,
But your eyes still sparkle,
With the language of thou stars.
