A
tree.
The most
Simple of the
Things I have seen
Today, yet the most complex.
Green youth, a Japanese maple standing --
A samurai dressed in shades of burgundy,
Slightly budding, but regal nonetheless.
Proud, delicate warrior, but ready for battle,
A lone memory of ages before.
Not a statue -- but a living,
Breathing thing. For this
Is the sign of spring.
A new life ready
To make
Its mark
On ages
To come.
