“Favorite”
cji
12/26/17
There’s
a tree growing up
allowing
me to climb daily
only so
far at first as young
both the
tree and me too
yet as
we aged higher up
both the
tree and me too
we were
each other’s favorite
spending
hours talking
sometimes
just quietly sitting
feeling
the breezes often
spring,
summer and fall
now in
the winter’s cold
no
longer to climb so high
both of
us in aging’s trap
ice
forming on the branches
same as
on – in my lungs
we were
each other’s favorite
eternally
friends meant to be!
