A Tale of Tree

I write this as I sit under a tree,
It’s beauty, a specimen of nature, you see;
It’s flower, so warm and bright,
Like the friend who stays with you,
On a summer’s night.
Its leaves, so dainty and green,
Just like a ballerina’s ‘petit’.
The way it sways in the wind, so light and sweet,
Reminds me of carolers on New Year’s Eve.
It has stories left untold,
The rings held in the trunks, old.
Its branches like a friendly embrace amidst a crowd,
Its tender touch to erase all foul.
I bid farewell to thee my tree,
My tree of tales, A tale of tree.
