Twenty-ninth Stone

The leafless beech
bears hundreds of
seeds armed
against the cold
with prickly coats.

I love the sound of "the leafless beech bears...seeds". Great alliteration

@Annie: Thank you. I have three sitting on mydesk and I love looking at them.
@ws: Thank you. After reading so much poetry, such as yours, I am getting much better at alliteration and internal rhymes.
