My Special Tree

I was walking thru the woods, When I came upon a tree. There was something special, Something I could not see. I tried to talk To this very tall tree, And couldnt understand, Why he wouldnt talk to me. I came each day, And the tree began to speak, He told me of the Rivers, And of the Mountain Peaks! Each day I came to visit, The tree grew very old, But I loved to hear the stories, And fairy tales he told! I came one day, And found my tree gone! They had chopped him down, As though he didnt belong! I knew in my heart, My friend had grown old, But I will never forget him! Or the stories that he told! Written By: Sunshine I wrote this at 15 years old, thats when I first discovered I could write poetry. But it was much more then that. I had the biggest crush on a guy whose family ran the local T-shirt silkscreen/transfer shop in the mall. Although he was 20, I was 15, he flirted back to satisfy my childlike crush, as he was madly in love with another girl. She and I also were friends. But I was head over heels in puupy love with Jeff. He would always try to tell me about boys and how I really was a beuatiful girl under the glasses, and buck teeth, the acne that covered my face. He always said I would blossom one day and make all the boys sorry for picking on me. I went one day to visit, as usual, and there was s sign on the window. Closed due to death in the family! My heart sank. Somehow, even though the parents were older, and there were 4 children, somehow, my heart knew it was Jeff. That friday night he was drinking and driving home. He missed the corner going onto the bridge over to Cape Coral in Florida. He went head first into a tree. Severing the car in half, and Jeff. My rock, my ego boost, my mentor, the guy who made me believe in myself, he was gone. I wrote this to be read at his funeral. I was never the same again. But I did learn by my 20 year class reunion, those words he said day in and day out, they rang true. Seems every boy in school that showed up, amazingly stated that all along in high school they liked me..I got to say, ya right! When? Before or after you shoved me in a locker? Knocked the books outta my hand? Had your friends laugh at me? I did get the last laugh. But I had a blast. I didnt hold it against them, we all grow up. Point is, Everyone has loved, lost and will love again. Thats the cycle of life. Jeff taught me that too :)
