Seduced by a tree

her limbs were perfect
branching toward my heart
bearing fruit so supple
deliciously a'la carte

she gave freely
her saps of love
often her firm roots
are what I think of

yet the forest is far
and so very dense
and I am a man
with no directional sense

I shall follow the trail
young saplings leave for me
whilst singing my verse
seduced by a tree......

I thought I was a mighty oak,
until I met a lovely fern

Have you ever read Book of Longing by Leonard Cohen? It's a poem (and a book). Check it out.
