You Perfect Tree

Crooked branches
Falling leaves
Firmly in soil
You perfect tree

Nests of birds
Housing eggs
Home to some
You perfect tree

Sweet ripe fruit
Dangle from your hair
Food for few
You perfect tree

Helping all
You perfect tree

Trees are precious, and i hate seeing them go, they are selfless givers just like some people we know. I love the way this flows in such a soul warming manner. So beautiful and seamless. Especially “sweet ripe fruit dangle from your hair” what a stunning ode! Brilliant write

Oh, such an impeccable write as expressing the emotions for the perfect tree, who may wither and turn weary through the trials of time but never forgets to serve the nature.. Loved reading this!
