I wonder about the trees; Why do we wish to bear Forever the noise of these More than another noise Bo close to our dwelling place We Buffer them by the day Till we lose all measure of pace And fixity ln our Joya And acquire a listening air. They are that that talka of going But never gets away; And that talks no less for knowing, As It grows wiser and older, That now It means to stay. My feet tug at the floor And my head swaya to my shoulder Sometimes when I watch trees sway From the window or the door. I shall set forth for somewhere, I shall make the reckless choice, Some day when they are ln voice And tossing so aa to acara The white clouds over them on. I shall have less to say, But I shall be gone.
