The Tree that Unites Us

The Bonus Wordle from Mindlovemisery’s Menagerie request us to use the twelve words given as prompts, or just six of them, in a shape poem. I decided to try it for a Christmas poem.

The

Universal Christmas Tree

It breathed once in unison with the birds,

With the small animals that scurried across the ground.

Each drip of rain was poetry, refreshing it for its divine destiny.

It now provides light for those lost in the hullabaloo of a world so divided.

Let us carve out time for each other this holiday, decorating with the ornaments fashioned from the dreams and wants of others’ hearts for love.
