Wisdom From Trees

Finding myself lost in dream deep forest
I was overwhelmed by tall tender trees
Their lush canopies are comforts for rest
Nesting birds bask in shafts of sunshine-kiss

Seated on grass by deciduous leaves
I heard trees-- melodiously whispering
Sharing great wisdom for me to believe
Then, rendered song with wind’s joyful singing...

“We’re trees, the precious treasures of this earth
We provide shelters, foods and furniture
Protection for next generations’ birth
From storms and floods…hugging the whole nature"

"Trees are great hope to make your future bright
Save them... God gives you good life in His light"
