exaltation

[cogs]

tree
loving
hugs the sky
spurring saplings
opens up their eyes,
wishes to reach the sun
shelters birds who in their wings
bring warm missives from the heavens
that each leaf communicates in turn,
a sturdy microphone for joie de vivre

I really like the form of escalating syllables (I'm sure there's a term for it) but I'm not quite sold on the content... seems a bit bland to me, but perhaps I'm missing something.

i didn't communicate clearly that the birds can go higher than the tree, toward the sun, so the tree shelters them, and they bring messages from their higher plane. then, a microphone, that speaks things louder, looks a little like a tree.

edit: i changed the 'microphone of' to 'microphone for', to show the joie being exalted, or amplified lol.
