I Know Two Trees That Sing

Two trees I know and greet each morning
fortressed by the densest green
even the cleverest climber cannot penetrate
only birds
and perhaps only birds that sing
get into that sanctuary 
and I am the passerby
stuck forever outside

lucky to be allowed to listen.

I could not allow such beautiful silence of these lines to go without a little wow from my side.

I have heard this song before and it is beautiful.
