I am just a tree,
I wish, like humans, I was free.

As a mother, I gave them shelter,
And protected them as a father.

I gave them my sweet fruits,
And gave them healthy vegetables from my roots...

But what do you want more from me, O human,
I brought rains for you and gave you oxygen.


Still you cut me,
But my dreams were just to be free.

God hasn't given me the power to express,
My sorrow and my stress.

But god has given me a heart, that's true,
Which yearns for being in a forest or near the river so blue.

What have I done wrong to you, O human,
Please leave me at once and I'll be in heaven...

This is a poem by me about a tree's feelings as it is being cut.. my poem expresses how a tree might feel when it comes to know that humans are going to take its precious life away....
