Bathed in moonlit shadows.

Bearing the deepest scars.
Your comrades have departed.
Lost in the tide of war.
Valiantly you bloom.
Bare branches sprouting green.
Coloring our landscape,
Undeterred by what you’ve seen.
How like us, so weary.
Yet, daring to rise once more.
Turning to face each new day.
In the aftermath of the storm.
