 | Trees Scream  [E] An old growth forest is attacked.  |
| (4.5)   Happy Earth Day Kaya!   I am a tree hugger and so I was drawn to this evocative and sad title! You drew me into the delightful life of the forest and our peaceful co-existence and natural progress of treedom. Then abruptly, "Madness enters" shows the shock of man's intrusion. What a brilliant expression with a harsher tone.   Your verses are balanced with consistent rhyme and rhythm. It was delightful to read aloud with its effective soundscape as well. Your use of poetic magics like assonance, consonance and personification is effective. The last verse is so evocative and the query at the end invites us to wake up and ponder.  I was a bit confused at the end as the third line I think refers to the tree and yet it seems like you are asking the tree if it can hear. I wonder if making the words "sentinel" and "giant" plural with the comma having it agree or refer to Trees that are screaming, might clarify this. mmm. I so enjoyed your lines like "wisdom....gloaming" and the metaphor "Destruction....steed" is brilliant. I was drawn to read it several time to sink into the vision. Well done! Thanks for sharing this well conceived expression that hits the heart of tree lovers and sends a message about being aware.  I like the tree as the illustration! Your appreciation and experience with trees is so warm and fuzzy.  Light on the path as you write on!eyestar   "WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group"  My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
