they whispered their anguish as he tore at their leaves
and he screamed as his passion sought its release.

in the light of his power I was nothing at all.
 
the moon hid her face from his fury in pain,
the sky shed cold tears in the manner of rain
and I cried out in fear as I fell to my knees
the night that the wind made love to the trees,
