The Majestic Ginko Tree

 

Looking, watching and observing the tree,

The branches stretch to reach and play along,

Many sentiments and thoughts come to me

As I watch it standing steady and strong.

 

The dew in a liquid crystal display,

Under the sun it does not grow tired,

As it stands perishing, everyday,

Watching it, people soon get inspired.

 

This tree has suffered and it has a scar

She has been burnt and is injured and torn

Like a light through dark times she is a star,

And makes us all regret, weep, grieve, and mourn.

 

A symbol of hope, peace, and being free,

As I watch this majestic ginko tree.
