Resilient Mountain Tree

At dawn, when wind blows...
Beyond might tree grows,
Can its root rescue
Dying tree anew?

Even though mountain
Floats root, its fountain:
Growing up at ease,
High and strong, should seize

Inner wind's rough hands,
Jogging wind's commands-
Keen on dropping all,
Lest the tree does fall.

Much might, rage enshrined,
Nails wind so unkind,
Oiling it with zeal
Pressure couldn't heal...

Quiet tree's pleas, kneel leafs
Repeatedly beefs-
Struggling tree, wind pulls...
Timing fall schedules.

Until it obeys,
Victory wind conveys.
Waiting wrath won't stop;
Xenophobic cop-

Young unyielding root,
Zealously dilute!
