Ponder the Ponderosa

Ponder the ponderosa pine.

Sticky, scented sap,

Tufted-eared and twitchy-tailed

Gray Albert squirrels.

Curious crows.

Whispering, whirling, whooshing

Wind through weathered branches.

Tall towering sentries along the trail.

Countless cones and never-ending

Needles, needles, needles.

The ponderosa pine.
