summary
The trees in the poem are of the paintings or pictures that are decorative inside the houses. Birds can’t sit in the trees because they don’t exist physically as natural forests have them. The roots work to free themselves from the cracks in the verandah floor. The boughs are compared with the newly discharged patients moving to the clinic doors. The poet is sitting inside the house writing long letters. The night is pleasant and fresh. The smell of leaves and lichen is reaching her. The trees are stumbling forward into the night. The moon is seen shining in the top of the tallest oak.
