    Why do pine trees
    rise so high?
    Towering timbers
    awarded highest in the sky.

    The oaks reach outward
    content in their size
    and the maple's colors
    their sense of pride.

    Watching the forest
    fall, grow and rise.
    Contemplation while sitting
    in a bowl of Bonsai.

    :) It's quite near to a sing song and I find it set to repeat in my mind.

    This makes me feel small and young and happy... A little 'hippy.'

    I liked it, especially the first two stanzas. The last stanza "lost it" a bit. Seems like theres still something to say about the pines, you know?
