A Child & Tree In Soliloquy



The child and nature sojourned oft in foliaged soliloquy,
Barren spots inwardly, escaping, seemingly, even the Creator,
Touched nigh in silenced audible greenery.

As leaves and limbs enfold comfort,
The child smiles, a solace of rustling leaves, now a fait accompli.

And the soliloquy continues amidst the wind,
Softly whistling through the tree.
