    Thank you, Miss Cookie. :) I wrote this thinking maybe I can help a tree to live. I'm glad you liked it.

this is an excellent poem. im glad you included authors notes, because this is a consciousness-raising poem. a most worthy endeavor to raise awareness for one of our most beautiful resources: trees.

A good subject for the spiral quatrain form. I can imagine all kinds of things spiralling around the trunks of these trees, ivy, chains of caterpillars, even a few verses of a spial quatrain poem.

    Thank you, (Jim?) I try to make sense of the world of poetry. :) You're a teacher, I'm a wannabe.

Wow, this was a great poem, Jose. Even with your narrative notes I was thrilled with the words of your poem. You called it as it is and I feel for the trees. Well done.

    Thank you, Alie. :) Let's hug a tree. They need love too.

    You are so very welcome, Jose, I have been a tree hugger since I was a little one, at first I didn't know why but when I was about 10 I really understood the energy.

Pain and love comes through strongly both in your author notes and your Spiral Quatrain. I like your dramatic opening line, it really sets the tone well. Cheers.

Great job with your spiral quatrain, Jose! And I like your message about the trees. The cedars here were looking parched even though we have a very short one month of summer but the winds blew all the dead leaves away and now they are "standing tall" and very green.
I hope we will find renewable resources for what we use trees for these days. There are more companies making toilet paper out of bamboo (which is a grass and grows like a weed !) and so there's hope for the future!

You have chosen an excellent illustration for your poem. I guess I am a tree hugger because I, too, worry about the destruction of this natural resource. This is well written.
