The Tree
There are those who ponder right from wrong.
The answer is found in the Tree.
The Tree is always right. It has no moral confusion.
If I cut a tree it will grow again.
If the wind blows hard it will bend and sway,
It seems to be calming the rage of the wind.
When it rains I can hide underneath,
When a branch falls I can make fire.
I can build my house from the fallen branches.
When the wind was blowing gently,
I’m sure I could hear sounds from the tree.
Sweet sounds of joy.
All it does is spread it’s giant branches
towards the rising Sun and sing.
