Looking to light on a dark day
Hope are her fruits
As she stands there small
Reaching
Rooting deeper into the ground
She is young
The olive tree in the yard

Memories are his
As squirrels live and die
Over time
He is old
The oak near the road

Her tenderness
His might
And I remain rootless
As the observer of the garden
