THE TREE
G. Burce Bunao

Made me a toy----
A top for instance, that spun around, carefree
And wound for joy
Until it toppled over and was dead.

No longer the boy,


I find the tree as beautiful

Just for a branch


Or a bunch of fruit but—more than that—for a bed
Or to fence the ranch
In which I raise the beasts that fill the pot
In the many shapes
My simple commerce turns them to, like bread
Or fish or grapes,
To feed the brood, the little woman and me.

There go the boys


Go watch them strong of limb; spread up the tree,
They pluck their toys
Out of its branch, as out of my childhood tree
I shaped my joys.
