Trees

TREES
We grow bright and beautiful 
We strong like iroko
No matter how we are cut
We sprout out more
Looking glamorous and bold
We smile with our green leaves
Truthful like the branches
We dare not go bare
Like the fig tree
We are casted to grow 
No matter what
We even settle to become a forest
I am proud to be a tree 
I am proud to be a Nigerian
