None Sits Under Trees



Prompt: Trees

None Sits Under Trees


None sits under trees
to share stories the hearts hide;
Old oak stands alone

Old oak stands alone;
winds touch with a hope to hear
tales of love and hate

Tales of love and hate
spill out in coffee cafe';
None sits under trees..



RS:)




Also sharing with Haiku My Heart..

  4. Sad tone, but funny way into the cafe: Tales spill as does the coffee! Poor tree, poorer humanity.

  5. Gossip belongs to the cafes. Contemplation belongs to the tree.

  8. yes, am sure the old oak had loads of stories to tell, secrets to share, if only somebody sat under it, and listened to it. folks prefer coffee cafes these days !

  9. It indeed has a sad tone, a yearning for connection through words. It's as if your poetry reach out and make that connection even though none are actually sitting under your "tree".

  10. Another touching trio, Ramesh, but believe me... I sit under my tree - by the way, it's an oak - and "he" is my confident; I know "he" will not reveal my secrets to anyone, only to the wind.

    Where we live, some road-side cafes mushroom beneath huge trees!

  16. I can actually feel for the old oak. But in November I avoid to keep the trees company.

  17. I have an old oak out in my back yard, with a long forgotten tree swing. I too sit in coffee shops. Thanks for the perspective. I love my tree :)
