Live Like a Tree
Rooted firmly
Change with the seasons
Be someone’s shelter
Welcome guests
Be flexible
Nurture nature
Reach for the light
Live like a tree.
~ Lynne Collier
I’m working my way through Robert Lee Brewer’s book Smash Poetry Journal.*
Today’s prompt was to write a poem about a bulletin board, with phrases you’d pin on a corkboard, stick on a fridge, or words of affirmation.
I chose the phrases to reflect my life as a Christ follower and remind myself to be like a tree in my faith. Each line is a bulletin.
