summer trees
Vivid green leaves grow outside
The window
Wasting and spreading
Lovely youth of nature
Branded jealously
As forbidden fruits fall
And glaze under the sun
Branches propagate glamorous babes
No one ever asked
For 15 years
As its shadow grew
Casting over like an angel
Of fervent summers
Eclipsing wary souls
Ever year
An inch upward
Closer towards the peaceful clouds
And the vibrant sun
Flares of wind
Swaying the leaves and branches
Strong and imminent
Surrounded by homes
The mountains
And roads
By humans
And people
Good and bad
Living
Existing
Breathing
Inhaling in all the bad and good around
It is and will only ever be a tree
Standing there immortal and mortal
A bystander
To the existence of the world
And it’s people
Just imagine
Forest
And fields
Of trees
Existing
All for us
And what do we ever do for them?
