The Tallest Palm Tree

Look up to the majestic sight Towering canopy of green Wide-reaching fronds Bold, confident, courageous. A tale thrilling to tell Hurricane eruptions, Of seasonal disturbance Bold, confident, courageous. Morning sun-rays filter now and then Blocks of color Slight variations of gray Stand bold, confident, courageous. Baby palm look up to the majestic sight Amongst others on sandy beaches Aspire to tell stories of survival Stand bold, confident, courageous. New plantings, appearance Vascular tissues, circular vessels Baby palm trees grow tall Bold, confident, courageous. A tale waiting to tell The next seasonal disturbance Stand bold, confident, courageous. The tallest palm tree Vie survives
