Winter Beech - a photo on Flickriver

Winter Beech

            Standing Silhouette

Proud in the silence, you stand all alone
whether warmed by the rays of the sun.
Or surrounded by snow in this place, your home
as squirrels through your strong boughs do run.

Bare in the winter, your branches exposed
to all that this climate may bring.
Each twig holds aloft every bud that is posed
to break with the onset of  spring. 

Stand firm in the wind that once stripped off each leaf
Let only the dead wood be lost
Hold onto your heart, standing brave in belief
that tonight is the last of the frost.
