Yes indeed - our trees are so precious to us and our lives on the planet - a lovely tribute here to their presence in our midst and their seasonal changes

Ciao poet!

I love to hug trees and listen to the leaves whisper in the breeze.

I m blessed because I m surrounded by woods and pine forests.

I enjoyed reading your poem : each season these giants gift us new emotions.

My favourite season is autumn , love those warm red and orange leaves.

I wrote my first poem in July 2018 and it was about Trees ( see below , no need to review).

    Thanks for reading and reviewing my poem.Sounds as though you are living in a beautiful place. Plenty of trees. Yes autumn is a great time of year, although there have been a lot of floods this year. I am from Australia. I will make sure I read your poem.
    Take care and have a great day.

We are like a tree, author. :) We grow to fill the skies with love from our hearts and nest within our arms the many children that nourish from that love. We wither with the coming age as winter sets upon our shoulders and see the future through our children's eyes. I love trees. This is a good entry for the 10 Line Poem. Thank you for sharing.

This is a good poem about a tree for the 10 lined poem contest. The rhyme scheme is good. The message is well stated, and one can see the care you took in writing it.
However, the text needs to be larger, and your poem box expanded. Drop the first line of the poem down one space. Go to the last word of the poem and after it hit enter twice. This will make your poem box larger and enhance your presentation. The it's in the last line is for the contraction ~it is. You need to change it to its~ the possessive pronoun. Good luck in the contest.

If it wasn't for trees our air would be too toxic for humans to breathe. We would miss the brilliant colors in Autumn. What a wonderfully written poem.

Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day, and God bless.

I think this is a beautiful poem that flows from line to line, except the last line. You chose a beautiful tree for your artwork, perfect for this poem. Maybe it's just me, but the last line needs more of a ring with glory.
