Tree,
in the orchard
gazing fearlessly at the sun
smiling
sheathed with an Armour of bliss

swallows
gracefully rests in its bosom
carving out a planet

trees
beyond world's conspiracy
habour souls
and flicker shadows of lovers cuddling
under glittering olive branches
dancing through nature of colourless hue

I am a tree
with glowing leaves
out of love's rejection
I stand still

throw me stones
I throw you fruits
cut my bark
you see no blood
fall me down and slice my trunk
I'll still grow to look you from the top
my roots goes down into the crust
deep down the inner core

I'm proud to be a tree
cut me down with a chain saw
shoot me right in the bole
set me ablaze
you see fire
I give you light
