GreetingsSunshine Store – Warm Sentiments for a Brighter Tomorrow

Jessica M. Collette

Fictional Sentiments Inspired by Life

A Classic

A classic

Is remembered

Cherished and kept

It’s something important

We should not forget

Formed with much thought

By talented hands

An art piece ages

As patina expands

Though the petals have dried

Still beauty remains

A classic

Adored in youth

Is now revered with age

_____________________________________________________________________________________ Two Trees _____________________________________________________________________________________ Two trees stood tall Brothers side-by-side At the edge of the field With no place to hide ~ One noticed changes All subtle at first Its leaves streaked in color Its roots a new thirst ~ But, the other found excuses Afraid of too much, too soon Noting, the air’s not cool enough And the sun’s too hot at noon ~ Yet, the first couldn’t ignore The nature of its calling Today, I’ll dress in autumn colors Tomorrow, I’ll let leaves start falling ~ Still, the other grew wary Of the calendar date Instead of honoring destiny It tried to change fate ~ While the first was recognized Far and wide For its vibrant autumn colors That it never tried to hide ~ The other was overlooked Which made it feel bad Its green leaves hung faded Looking sullen and sad ~ Even as the first Let go of all its leaves Standing bare and tall Its true purpose was achieved ~ Still the other became fearful Unable to let go Now its leaves that should have fallen Were all covered in wet snow ~ Though both trees were covered Only the first could hold the weight Because the other feared its purpose It now faced a harsher fate ~ A few of its branches Crumpled to the ground Yet it hoped in the spring It had a chance to rebound ~ To learn from the first tree Admitting its blunder With a chance to grow all season It would become an autumn wonder _____________________________________________________________________________________ #positivevibes #naturepoem #storyteller #fiction #originalpoem #graphicdesign #picturesandwords #visualpoetry #rhyme #micropoetry #creativewriting #wordart #mywords #positivepoetry #spilledink #author #amwriting #poemoftheday #poetsociety #igpoetry #poetryisnotdead #writersofinstagram #poetrycommunity #poetryinmotion #poetry #writingforfun #destiny #create #quote #parable
