The Oak Tree Poem by Dave Scott

The Oak Tree

Rating: 5.0


Picture a great oak in a field of small trees
As lightning strikes, it falls to its knees


No one saw or heard it, so did the tree really fall?
What about the Christian who kept his faith hidden from all?

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I am Christian, but am constantly challenged with the instinct to hide my beliefs. It is truly difficult to live a life of active faith.

Your a good poet. The poem really makes you think. This reminds me faith without works is dead.
