My tree

The sound of the ocean sings loudly.
Her roots dance through the soft soil.
She slowly sways in the wind enjoying its melody.
She has a rough surface with leaves glowing in the sun.
Rays of light weaving through her branches.
The still and quietness dances around me, as I sit up there and watch the water swallow the sand.
Her long arms reached out far,
Long lush living leaves steal the eyes of many.
From sunrise to sunset she stands in all her glory.
