Thank you for submitting your poem for consideration for Featured Poem of the Month for December.  I love the perspective in this poem – the tree wondering about itself – losing its leaves – generating new ones – perhaps flowering – producing fruit – lovely way of presenting the feelings and experiences of trees.  If I were to make a suggestion, it would be to incorporate more imagery in your poem so that we could experience what you feel – what the tree feels – on a sensory level.  Example:  “Deeper my roots run/like fingers reaching down/searching through the stony ground.”  Very well done and I thank you for your interest in https://www.poetladykatz.com  Your friend in poetry, Susan
