~Falling leaves~
Passing from this state of being.
Bury me under a mighty oak tree.
Tell the ones that loved me most.
To stand below and close their eyes.
I will shower them with falling leaves.
Like kisses from the sky. ~Duke Deltree~

You are in good company, Duke; though without the link to your wife, obviously, the tree motif has graced writings of poets throughout human kinds' history. Trees come closer to touching immortality then the life span of today's human.

You have understanding, I've written a work called Secret Thoughts, with what you said in mind. I think you would like that also. The oak tree has been my mystic guardian so to speak as I function better in the forest more at ease, listen to the voice's of the living God. but not with the ear. Thank you for your moments as all are precious. I'll be happy to look at your work. Thank you much.

you are most welcome BUT those poets who have used the tree motif don't include me, at least not yet.
