Strong Timber

(rewritten by Kendra Nielson, inspired by Douglas Malloch’s Poem, Good Timer)

The tree that never had to fight

For sun and sky and air and light,

But stood out in the open plain

And always got its share of rain,

Never held a woodland crown,

Lived and died, potential drown'd

The soul who never had to toil

To gain and farm their patch of soil,

Who never had to win their share

Of sun and sky and light and air,

Never became a sturdy soul,

But lived and passed in their small role.

Good timber does not grow with ease:

The stronger wind, the stronger trees;

The wider sky, the greater length;

The fiercer storm, the more the strength.

By sun and cold, by rain and snow,

In trees and beings good timbers grow.

Where thickest lies the forest growth,

We find the elders there of both,

And they hold counsel with the stars

Whose broken branches bear the scars

Of many winds and much of strife.

This is the eternal truth of life.
