The Great Oak Tree

The branches swing

The leaves sway

The roots stand their ground

Through night and day

 

The wisdom beneath

The great oak

Is one so powerful

It's never been spoke

 

The light the tree gives

Brings joy to us all

We play every day

Like it will never fall

 

But soon comes along

The heavy blade

Goodbye Great Oak

How I'll miss your shade

Definitely brings voice to the trees that are being chopped down. Delightful and sad. I loved it! Keep writing, Madhumitha!
