"Withstand like A Tree"
When the sudden dust storm blows,
And the numbing winds start to rise,
Plant your feet and let roots expand,
Keep your eyes upon the skies.
Branches bend, but do not shatter; leaves
Will fall, but life remains. Brave the storm
For your own sake, Sunlight ensues all the
Rains.
Stand your ground and hold your head,
Weather every quick-freeze and frost.
No matter what the direction ahead, no
True strength is ever forfeited.
