A Day with a Walnut Tree
You look same old same old
to those who do not know you
You are new everyday
to those who appreciate you
Your palms are now wide open
you are giving away life to the wind
who can carry it to stars
who can sing with blinking eyes
You look quiet to those who sit under you
You tell stories, though
to those who look up to you
with all the scars and signs
Today I will sit with you
listening to all the stories that you have to tell
I will tell my stories too
so that you can tell them to the wind.
