The Trees Before The Woods 2: Sonnet Poem for Kids. Mindfulness Poem for Kids

Dappled sunshine shines through the leaves of a tree.

The Trees Before The Woods 2


When all the world with each rotation shifts

When life on Earth at times is not a breeze

When friendship, peace and love are set adrift

Who needs to see the woods before the trees?


Behold the giggling fidget of each leaf

Behold the shade and dapple as they play

Behold the bark and palm its rough relief

Who needs to see the week before the day?


Let’s hear each note of dawn’s great chorus sing

Let’s watch each cloud morph by as it’s redrawn

Let’s feel each breath exhale, set sail on wing

Who needs to see the day before the dawn?


When life’s no breeze, explore for brave new buds

For seeing trees will help you seize the woods
