I am the winter trees, if you please.

I am the winter trees, if you please.

The winter trees look fragile, standing there nakedly.
Their limbs seem too weak for the weight of their future greens.
And yet when the blooms come, they will carry the bounty proudly.
Nothing ever having looked more beautiful under pressure.
And all will forget how sad they were in the winter.
