It took me half a
century to learn of
The intelligence
of trees,
Why and how their
leaves know how
To lift their
underbellies to the rain.
How many
centuries did it take
For the trees to
learn this?
How grateful
should I be
For the power of
observation?
When will I
inherit
The intelligence
of trees?
from All Drinking Aside (Rough Draft, Chapter 22)
