Be a Tree
No Tree
is possessive of its own fruit
When ripe, tree lets it go
If plucked, it doesn't stop
It weathers all weathers
till it looses life
to calamity or deforestation
No human
should be possessive of Knowledge
Knowledge is akin to fruit of one's effort
Let it go, share fully, half-way is unlike tree
Absorb criticism see good in it
Nurse quest, gain wisdom
Serve humanity, till life departs
