Ode to a Tree : Samridhi Sahay

O tree, I adore thee,
Without thee, how our life would be?
Thou art the song of earth,
As thou sway thy body back and forth.
In breeze and rain,
A beautiful rhythm thou make again and again.
Thou let me breathe air,
Pure and crisp everywhere.
Woods for the fire thee give,
To the poors to cook or to make homes to live.
O tree, thou art kind,
As thou calm my mind.
I adore thee from my heart's core,
Beco'z the crops of love in the field of my heart thee pour.
