The Tree

Foliage's proud show

Branches' display of grandeur

Unseen toiling roots!

I can see you gazing at that tree when you wrote this. Haiku of nature is what I understand haiku to be.

You are right dear, Sunlite the tree gave the inspiration but the thought was deeper than the roots of it! Thank you for lovely visit!

I can apply your deep write to devoted parents who never spare an effort to instill values and everything good into their offsprings.. Rooted lofty trees symbol of endurance and self denial.. A warm shade under which we thrive and rejoice bliss and blessings.. Wise and brilliant piece of art as always! A great joy to read. Stay safe and blessed dear Demetrios.

Excellent deduction my dearest friend, Besma. We also could see Man and God, the work the good people do while others get the credit and many more situation! Thank you for your noble words and support my friend! God bless you as always!

Sometimes we only see the finished product not realising the hard work that went into producing it. Your beautiful roof garden comes to mind Demetrios. Tom
