Wind blown
maple samaras
whirl around
willy nilly
falling where
they may
Arriving timely,
randomly thrown,
the earth
receives them,
idling by,
a place to land.
And then!
Their seeds
take hold.
drink the soil,
test the sun,
and sprout new buds.
Sapling whips
shoot aloft reaching,
seeking light above,
roots below
trees to grow.
Stout trunk
broad limbs
lush green leaves,
trees unfold
into giants
of the realm.
From tiny seeds
to massive trees
maples become,
beauty and bounty,
with shade to sit
and sap to sip.
Come winter
it’s time to tap,
and boil and boil
and boil and boil,
their sweet essence
to sugar and syrup.
So let’s remember
to savor sweet maples,
where we may,
and plant them
along the way.
