Unborn.
Siamese twins they are the two old oaks
got the same fungi on one spotted trunk,
too late now for a tree surgeon to come
along with his chain saw. Their leaves
are evenly green, sisterly sharing earths
sustenance, when one of them feels low
the other shakes its leaves in sympathy.
In the merciless battle for survival I was
a pre natal bully sucked up my brother’s
nourishment, stillborn he was, yet he’s
the best in me and he sees the beauty of
the sunset and love all helpless creatures
great or small.

Two words: Eye-opening. I'm glad I clicked my way here, Jan. Your work is by far the most refreshing thing I've stumbled across all month.
Great poem.
5 stars.
