The lone tree

The lone tree that sat on top of the hill

The lone tree was in solitude

But the lone tree that sat on top of the hill had the wild to keep him company

The lone tree was old and still aging

The lone tree that sat on top of the hill watched and saw all

The lone tree gave cover to those who hiked and climbed

The lone tree that sat on top of the hill watched the black inky night

The lone tree remembers the days when he was still a little sapling
