Respect their purpose. Such true words. I don't even buy Christmas cards because of the trees. People laugh at me, but I love the trees, they give us so much, homes to many, shade, fruit and nuts. So much in a tree. When God gave us this gift, he gave us so much more. I loved the picture by the way. Good luck in the competition. Genya

Comment from Jeanie Mercer
This is a good poem, but the reason I rate it 4 stars instead of 5 is that it has the wrong number of syllables in the 2nd line. The prompt calls for a 5-7-5 (5 syllables in the first line, 7 syllables in the 2nd line and 5 syllables again in the 3rd line. Yours is 5-5-5. I'd hate to the entry disqualified because of this little problem, and have your member dollars wasted. I bet you could change it pretty easily to comply, if you want to. Let me know if you change it and I will edit my rating. Good luck, Jeanie Mercer

Rating revised after corrections were made and I was happy to do it!
This is really a wonderful message and well penned. I have to grade you down for the contest rules state a strict 5-7-5 and this is 5-5-5. You need to dix this before voting begins or the Compliance Committee will disqualify it. I wish you all the best in the voting and thank you so much for sharing this with me.

This is quite an excellent piece of work here indeed. I love the haiku short form. You have just got straight to the point here and that is why I like this !

Comment from Dean Kuch
Trees. We certainly wouldn't live long without them, and if we did, the world we'd be living in wouldn't much be worth it. We're dependent on all trees, shrubs, bushes, and other plant life as well to help oxygenate the air we breathe.
Nicely done, and best of luck to you in the contest.

Comment from mfowler
This is a very nice effort. You've used your seventeen syllables to glorify God with a burst of gratitude:trees, a gift from God. You've given us the science of photosynthesis, and laid out the conservation message of:respect their purpose. Yes, this is tree hugger country and it's well done. Good luck in the contest.
