THE TREE

The tree is ART created by hand
Grown up from a seed that was put in the land
Whether put there by God, Mother Nature, or man
It's beginnings & ends are all part of the plan
The tree is LIFE from it's roots to the air
Giving freely it's shade & fruit it will bear
Doesn't discriminate or discern between rich man or poor
Gives to young & to old until it has nothing more
The tree is the MAN from a boy he has grown
Always learning from mistakes that he must atone
Trimming off dead branches to make room for the strong
To find the place in the world he'll belong
