The wayside elms

The wayside elms are all my loving grannies

They draw me to their trunks

And hug me hard

With their thousand weathered arms

  2. It is simple. I feel that the old elm trees by the way side are my loving grandmothers. They, I feel draw me to their trunks and hug me with their weather-beaten branches. I am just trying to express my love for trees.
