where creative minds can interact
Maple Tree
from a small seed becomes a giant,
found in places untamed and so defiant,
out stretched arms reach for heavens light,
with age, leaves grow, turn from dull to bright,
they shelter us from the heat,
its shade spans several feet,
It is an artist tree,
brilliant colors to see,
Leaves shaped like an upside down flower,
bugs seem to devour,
If you cut it down,
it surrenders it age with a frown,
