Trees of all living things are the most patient and enduring. This marvelous poem conveys in beautiful detail what benefits we can derive from them and how we abuse their generosity. A one of a kind write. A wonderful tribute to trees embedded with a punch on those who just take them for granted. Beautifully written with compelling imagery.10++

Considering self as a tree and motivating life with greater purpose is definitely an interesting act. Revisiting this poem I am truly glad. Birds and Squirrels in all seasons depend on tree. An interesting verse is beautifully penned.

A tree when full of lovely leaves is beautiful tree. Tree is symbolic motivational scene for a human life. When a person is full of memories and members then he is just like tree. Tree selflessly loves and serves. This poem is definitely treasured with time. An interesting revisit is done toady to this poem.

The lament of a tree has been asutely and depthly inscribed. When trees bear fruits men throw stones at them yet trees give fruits. They cut often the branches when trees grow. Beautiful poem amazingly shared.10

The squirrel and the bird belong to the tree And man just owns her if possible. The only relief is - But it is yet again a poet -a man or a woman who lets the world know of this..

A Beautiful poem with indepth meaning. Beautiful way you have compared life to a tree. At last the tree is cut and chopped off after utilising it to the maximum extent. When nothing is left, its chopped and sold for dime. Birds and squirrels never expects anything, they love whereas the last lines But, from selfish men I would rather flee. Fantastic write. Beautiful flow of words. Loved reading it.
