Simplicity and Grace-A Types of Poems Poetry Contest
"I shall be like a tree planted by the river ... " Psalm 1:3
I am as strong as a tree, soaring yet grounded
roots of my past firmly planted within the earth.
The leaves of my Present are constantly changing
I learn with each color--life's faces, infinite.
Branches of my Future extend upward, outwards
in all directions with growth, knowledge expanded.
The beauty of a tree, the gentle sway it makes
shows us how to live with simplicity and grace.
