A Shout out for Michael !

I'm too busy to hunt out your email address so here's something I wrote for you ;-)

Amygadalus communis hastens the word,
Buxus sempervirens makes it durable,
Laurus nobilis sweetly shades it,
Cedrus libani raises the word aloft.
Cinnamomum zeylanicum shows the three,
Cupressus sempervirens houses the word,
Ficus carica feeds those who hear,
Capparis aegyptiaca soothes and cleanses,
Populus tremula rustles in the spirit,
Salvadora persica raises the mighty from the small,
Olea europaea feeds the body temple,
Phoenix dactylifera waves for the righteous.
Punica granatum joys the garden,
Acacia seyal drops its thorns for the tabernacle,
Pistacia terebinthus is the painter's friend,
Ceratonia siliqua fed the prodigal's son,
Platanus orientalis provides the rods,
Vitis vinifera Noah's hands planted,
while Genista monosperma provided Elijah with rest.
