    Root
          I am the Juniper.
          Interweaving arms serve as anchors to this arid plain.
          Waiting in the desert for that cold breeze to roll on through.
          Looking for the fire that all this smoke will lead me to.
          I am the Juniper.
          Letting the world revolve around this stagnant pose.
          I fear there is nothing I have done
          except wait  for the sky to fall
          so I can reach the Sun.

    That may be the kindest thing anyone's ever said about my poetry. Thank you.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
