The Jew Tree
She stands in the garden, spotted in red
Evergreen grace around my homestead A delight for birds of varied wing For us she is toxic, a dangerous thing She knows to defend and to survive Even with little she can grow and thrive Yet man took her wood for hunt and war She endured and outlived hardly more The rootstock strikes out if required Her wounds heal quickly, so admired 'Mongst trees, she reigns, a silent queen Thousand years or more, her span unseen Every branch can sprout anew Once it reaches the earth in a silent coup So it can live, so to speak lightly Eternities here on earth so brightly The wood is hard, once in high demand For bows and arrows in a strong man's hand This tree once was sacred and so revered Today we are anxious and a little bit weird |
