Birch tree
stripped bare
like me
No leaves to receive
the rain
Nothing left
to give or gain
Glowing white
in the mist
Twigs too thin
to clench a fist

Birch trees are beautiful.

I agree! Something mysterious and ethereal about them…especially on misty days, or when the sun is shining brilliantly on them and there are grey storm clouds in the background.

I’m not a fan of wallpaper, but if I found some of a forest of birch trees, I would totally get that, preferably in my writing office… once I have a writing office. A girl can dream, can’t she?
