Rapa Nui - Alan Cohen

[Larry Robinson]

Rapa Nui

On Easter Island,
How did the stone axe feel
While swinging into the last tree’s trunk?
Chopping, chopping, until it toppled to the earth.
 
In the field brimming with daffodils
smiling at the sun, what did it feel like
To plant the first one

	- Alan Cohen
