Yet another tree poem...enjoy.

****
From a seedling
You shall grow
Out of the ground
And into the light

You will enjoy your first rain
And how soft the sun feels
You will grow taller
With each passing day

Thunder rolls
And lightning flashes
You loose a limb
And your leaves burn

Now wet and cold
You stand alone
Because all your friends
Have fallen

You get chopped down
And made anew
A desk, a door, a chair, a stool
And some paper

Your death comes
In time
Because
Nothing lasts forever

But don't worry
You have kids
In the ground
That are beginning to grow.
