Oak

Felled

American oak –
So old it has caves inside ~
Hidden until now.

Hiding in plain view –
The oak , seven years solid –
Grows into itself.

Acorn
Given time
Rules all

Wisest
Oldest
Knowing

Oak leaves
Denote
Heroes

Under an oak
A sacrament
A joining

In Derry
A bronze sword
is cleaned in the Foyle

Gateway;
A giver
of New Worlds.
