Death in an Envelope

This poem is fantastic maple, it took me a min but I think I understand what you mean by this. I think you are comparing this women to a tree in a metaphor. The wording is great because you did a great job to stay consistent to your story. You used both parts of a human and a tree to make your imagery shine. I really loved the thunderstorm stanza as it can be interpreted in a couple different ways to me. Well first is the meaning you see when you read this. The tree after a storm c an be destroyed after a storm but the deeper meaning is this girl had an anger raging inside her and it destroyed her as well over time. The third stanza is beautiful as well. Sealed with a kiss means she shined with so much happiness or did before the storm. Anyways you always do a great job with your nature poems.
