Winter Tree

Tree branches, shed foliage onto frozen ground,.
Covering icy, earthly veins,.
The tree provides a new understanding,.
Perspectives on what could be,.
Laying waste to what was,.
Knowledge surpasses doubt,.
After the winter sets in,.
Forever cold and dark,.
Is what the words the tree imparts,.
As I hang from it's boughs,.
Forever grateful to have been taught what it knows.,..,.,
