Five Trees of the Sky

Five trees grow high above
Which time does not blow
The cold wind is empty
The sun’s heat is zilch
Their green gems never fall

One is an ash tree
One is an oak tree
One is a maple tree
Two are great birch trees
These are the five trees

Five foods grow high above
Those who taste the foods
Will not feel time’s wind
They will fly high above
To a sky blue city

One will be a dove
One will be a robin
One will be an eagle
Two will be good hawks
Five birds for five trees

Trees are fed by lakes
Of red water of life
The five lakes shine above
Not by the gold sun
But the son high above
