The apple   
 
                                          tree was not    

                                             a maple.    

                                  Fruitless fig tree was cursed,   

                                     never again to bare.    

                                   That was the very first.    

                                   Was it about our faith?    

                                     Or was it about figs?    

                                   Was it, "Do not be late"?    

                          Jonah was swallowed by a great fish,    

                            but God told the fish to let him go.    

                           He was not prey for his dinner dish.    

                             Jonah was happy for just awhile,        

                            but he had not yet learned his lesson.    

                       It would take some time for Jonah's smile.    

                         We also learn from figs, fish, and trees;     

                              Be real, to obey, to produce.            

                              But not least of all is to believe.
