Oh weathered tree, you are like me;

-

Your twisted trunk has worn the years

-

and seasons past-yet you still last,

-

With roots that show your anchor's fast.

-

Connecting to your life supply-

fed from the ground and from the sky,

-

Your summer leaf's the flag you fly.

-

You show the wear but also stand

-

to bear the mark...the Master's hand.

-

Psalm 52:8

But I am like a green olive tree
    in the house of God.
I trust in the steadfast love of God
    forever and ever.

-

blessings to all the weathered trees!
