ARTHRITIS { Self Portrait }
She stands very tall, very strong
Her feet planted firmly in the ground
She could weather any storm
She did not waver in the strongest wind

She could weather any storm
She did not waver in the strongest wind

Her beauty was subtle, ever changing
Like the seasons, with the seasons
Her arms stretched out to hold up ones in need
Her branches leafed out to shade others
Her beauty was subtle, ever changing
Like the seasons, with the seasons
Her arms stretched out to hold up ones in need
Her branches leafed out to shade others

Now shes old, wrinkled, knotted
Her limbs are twisted with pain
Oh Jehovah look, in your eyes shes still standing
Hopefully, forever to remain
Her limbs are twisted with pain
Oh Jehovah look, in your eyes shes still standing
Hopefully, forever to remain

More of an herbal tea person, but I love your tree. It really pulls me into the picture. The detail is interesting and seems to share a sense of satisfaction with the world that is enjoyable for me. Thank you for sharing.
