two pigeons, blue gray
had one mother, blue gray earth
blue gray now, all red

Beaten

A tree was beaten, but not dead.

Branches were twisted, leaves flopped.

Roots of Amber Songs

grains of nimble thoughts

tilled into the silver mind

gave a thousand hands

Back to my roots

 

I’m travelling down to Bristol
Just going for the day
Where fifty-seven years ago
to this life I made my way
On the map are several places
Familiar by name
But I’d imagine quite a bit has changed
and it won’t look quite the same

Roots, Deep

I have roots, deep
Do I need permission
To hold this soil, my mother
Who is mine

Lanturne: Roots

Poetry challenge: Lanturne poem.

roots
stronger
by hard work
beyond a dream
deep

We Are Trees

With due respect to Peter’s format. I love it

We are trees
Meant to be firm
Look high towards the sky
With roots strong
Deep within
