Perspective




At first light, three men 
entered the forest.

The axeman downed a tree
riddled by insects
seeing it worth only fire wood.

The logger brought a chainsaw 
with greed in his smile.
He would sell lumber 
to make his fortune.

The musician searched all day
playing fingers over bark and limbs.
His nostrils filled with scents of joy,
to discover material to make
instruments whose living notes
might please a weary world.
