Lesson From A Tree

Oh tiny tree why do you grow

just there, I would like to know

In a hollow atop a trunk

how small now is your world shrunk.

Oh tiny tree what mad caprice

said here gamete I release

Here, where there is no room to grow

countless seasons pass so slow.

Oh tiny tree still here you stand

proud as any in the land

With leaves so small and trunks so straight

laughing in the face of fate

Oh tiny tree you make me smile

passing stop and look a while

I pray that I may one day be

Just as confident as thee.

Cheers,
