Learn From a Tree

When you pluck a flower, the tree remains silent When you remove a leaf, it reposes to relent When you climb over, it shields When you sever a branch, it yields When you harvest the fruits, it doesn’t demur When you cut a portion, it doesn’t murmur When you replant, it don’t quit When you cut the whole tree, it is quiet For the tree treats you, as its’ master! So your needs, happily it does cater!! By silence, it symbolizes surrender It silently shows a noble order The tree, to its’ master, contently admit Like the tree, to your Master, learn to solemnly submit!
