Shaded Tree
There was a tree that death
proclaimed to be his. Then
one day with might and
stength, this shaded-tree
perceived its divine-purpose.
From nowhere a mighty and
ferocious young lion appeared.
None would dare take this
precious and heling tree's life
now.
For he realize that God, Him-self
placed this magnificent lion of royal-
ness to protect him from the laborer
saw and ax.
Suddenly his branches sprung forth with
great fortitude. yet, deep within its center, one could
behold his hurtful scar that death imprinted upon him.
Nevertheless, did life and strength and healing
come from his will to live. Thus, was the purpose of
the wonder of this Shaded Tree.
