River Birch Blues








Look how high you reach
 to the sky
as your peeling bark sheds

Shall I pick up a scrap
scrawl a message
across

"Send reinforcements
can't hold out much longer
the battle, too long
my strength, low
Send the robins!"

  2. I'll bet you could use the bark in collage. If Miki uses hornets nest..why not birch bark? Good thinking Ill bring you some
    yes, I practically fell over getting that picture..and I got dizzy..but that's another topic
