The Unhappy Tree
A high rise leafless tree,with vast branches,
looks courageous, bears bad and good,
tolerates torment,still stands straight
Yet,it's not happy
It anticipates birds,butterflies and bees
But no butterfly nudges and no bee kisses.
Anxiety increases,it cries and languishes,
Not aware of reason
A small shrub,with very few leaves,
looks majestic,and ever smiling,
braces the most beautiful daisies.
It's so happy
Butterflies and bees encircle the flowers.
No rivalry,they shared the nectar.
Ecstasy increases,it's at the height of bliss.
It doesn't need a reason
The leafless tree envies the daisy plant,
yearning for the valuable reason.
Answered by the eternal blue sky,
"Happiness embraces you when you are ready to embrace it back
