A lune..the nurse stump...NaPoWriMo - Poem #4

NaPoWriMoNaPoWriMo - Poem #4

THE NURSE STUMP
The nurse stump
gathers moss on one side
ferns flourish around

Sun reaches it
late afternoon, and the rain
quenches it's thirst

 Refuge or nest
for some, and for others
a storage place

 Once stood here
a tall beautiful cedar tree 
fallen yet alive

 Within its center
grow baby trees,  the bluest
Forget-Me-Nots
