"The Tree of Red," by Amalia E. Zents

"The tree of red" a new song by Amy Zents

The tree of red stands out among the rest;

The tree of red is aflame with the colors of finality.

For months to come once autumn’s done,

The bare bones of the tree will show.

But time comes round,

And then comes spring.

The tree of red will burst with new leaves.

The tree of red will burst with birds and seeds.

The tree of red will love the summer~

Snow will have been long forgotten,

Then, the tree of red will appear in her glory;

Vibrant and wondrous to behold;

The age of browns, and tans and gold;

The tree of red will freak all eyes;

Young and old.

Will make them sit up in surprise;

With it's colors bold.

The tree of red will stand aflame

Under blue skies the sun she'll shame;

The tree of red will make things right

Before the winter ends it’s light.

The tree of red has made my day

It stands for time as it flows away

The tree of red does make me smile

At least for today, at least for just a while
