Moonlight Through the Pines
White Pines
Sentinels of lakeside,
veterans of many storms,
under blackened skies,
which crashed waves to shore.
Experienced in bearing
snows heavy burden,
with wisdom to capture
the pale winter sun,
when deciduous shells
stand silent, devoid
of all their leaves.
Possessing perches for eagles
and summits that
stretch to the sky.
