Analysis of The Tibetan Cherry Tree



The Tibetan Cherry Tree

Dressed in ribbons of copper and gold,       Colours rich and deep and bold,
Textures both smooth and rough,
A strong wee tree and pretty tough.

Dressed in God's unfailing love,
Blessings and Joys sent from above,
The Autumn colours in the Fall,
They show that God is in it all.

About this poem

I wrote this poem as I was in awe of the beautiful bark on this ornamental Tibetan Cherry Tree. God dresses the trees and flowers and He also dresses us with His love. God is in all things including The Tibetan Cherry Tree. Kim
