Question:When I was a boy
I walked my woodland with joy and a little sadness
It was my solace
It was my place
Each tree I knew and its face
I climbed my pine
So tall and straight
And perched, eagle like, to watch and wait
To see the lovers come and go
To see the fox that I had come to know
The mists of dawn the sun peeping through
The call of a dove and the morning dew
And all the while I’d watch and wait
Atop my pine so tall and straight.

Nice!

I enjoyed this poem very much.

I just finished reading an autobiography by the late Katherine Hepburn called "Me" and I was surprised that she loved climbing trees when she was young.

Trees are truly magical things. I used to love climbing a weeping willow. It was huge and beautiful.

For a grumpy old man that was good

That sounds amazing! It really shows how solitude can lead to someone loving nature.

Sure, it rhymes. Nice work too.
