To stand next to some birch trees
Leaning out from the edge of a grove
To look out in winter 'cross
Buff-colored straw, lingering snow
Or in summer with foxtail & milkweed
Dragonflies, cicadas, bees
Mutual sense of belonging
Summer haze, person, and tree.
Never need for argument
Whether in spirits or not you believe
A birch tree has something holy;
This, what all concede.
