Protector

Protector

Spread your boughs wide
and encircle me with your span
May your soft leaves
gently caress and comfort me
Protect me with your size
and calm my nerves
with your strength
Feed and nourish me
with your fruits
and keep my secrets safe
with your wisdom

I have been writing poetry since I was a child and it has helped in the good times and bad times. I am always looking within to find the answers to life's problems and to write thought-provoking poetry and prose. Thanks for checking it out. Christine

  6. I feel comforted by your vision from this picture. Thank you for “protect me with your size and calm my nerves with your strength”. This reminds me of the steadiness of a favourite Oak tree, too.

    1. Thank you so much. Yes I had a large oak tree in mind when I was writing it. I think we all have favorites! ☺️💕

      1. Yes, that’s true. I’ve just been evicted from my rental house because the landlord is selling so I’m feeling a bit edgy about housing at the moment.
