Oh great and vibrant tree,
Ten times as strong as me.
I yearn to see the sight,
Of your unbridled might.
Above the striving plants,
That live the life of chance,
They struggle in your shade,
Beneath your leafy glade.
You bask in glowing sun,
In stature you’re the one.
“For sure you are the best,”
The plant world has confessed.
Oh great and vibrant tree,
You are the king I see.
I long to be like you,
And glimpse the world you view
