My knees
A poem about bald cypress:

Knees of the trees, a fountain, a rainbow, Muscogee, OK in 2004.

My knees

My knees breathe above the muck.
My arms shelter placid waters,
that thin emerald sheen of life
protecting hidden depths below.

My needles fall come October,
blanket all with rust and gold.
An autumn quilt of warmth and color.
I am old. This swamp is older.
