My Sister Tree
by
ryan erdmann

My sister tree

The trees will carry us
To the sky

These animal cells
So soon will die
Become this Earth
And long for sky

They sneak their way
From root to stem
Those swirling atoms
That once were men

So lift them high
My sister tree
One day you too
Will be made out of me

And the fruit we bare
That falls to the ground
Is a spoke on the wheel
That we all turn around
