‘To The Trees’
a Terza Rima
by Caroline Burrows @VerseCycle
Cycling home, the road levels out,
But rising anxiety sends
Me round bends, to where there’s less doubt,
To the trees I regard as friends,
Who line the off-road travelled less.
One branch to another extends,
Leaves whisper their soothing caress,
Their green sanctuary easing stress.
