A Top
A snow covered
mountain top
resides a solitary
tree long abandoned.
Deep cuts that pierce
to its center
bleeding out sap,
that runs down to the snow.
Its needles slowly changing
from comforting green
to a dreary brown
in longing for the tree
that stood next to it.
Now, there is only a
deep frost coated hole
There is no more warmth,
for this tree.
