My Request To a Root

I nourish a wish for long 
To enter into a tree 
So I frequently go 
To a forest deep 
At jet black night 
And touch a root 
And request it 
Even for a moment 
To take me in 
After all trees are not stone 
Neither they are jealous 
Or show their grabbing attitude like men 
They are judicious 
Sympathetic and full of love 
More hospitable for a man 
Than a man for a man 
Oh tree, even for a moment 
Please take me in
