Visiting the San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers

Two Trees
Two trees grew side by side
nourished by the same soil
their roots intertwining slowly
year after year.
Two trees who as their trunks widened grew taller and taller
shading each other from the harsh heat of the sun
sheltering each other from the harsh winds of the storms
leaves and twigs falling mixed on the ground.
Limb in limb growing
root reaching root
solid on their own
together two trees.
(For Philip.)
