Aaaaah, nature. The most versatile topic in poetry. This piece is simple, but I love it-for a piece that was done in only a few minutes, this is an interesting piece. I saw each stanza as a roadmap, or an explorative piece on each part of a tree (branches, stump, leaves, etc). And how we as people rip its beauty from it, even thought it did nothing wrong. I loved the ending line in each stanza "as if its __ was never never there." That's really powerful.
I'm not sure if this was meant to be a commentary on the destruction of nature, or something.
But I liked it, nonetheless.
Cheers!
