All trees tickle at the tap, the drum of ~
the woodpecker’s peck, the quick-side splitter! ~
A willow wriggles when probed by its tongue which ~
bends for bugs’ legs ~
that itch as they scatter ~
A birch tree bellows as pin striped feathers ~
brush in the belly-button hollow, heaving the ribs that hold from split ~
Well, which tree hasn’t been left with a splinter ~
From the woodpecker’s peck, the red rumped zinger?
