THE TREE IN MY GARDEN

sudarshan

I grew a tree long ago,

It gives me a lot of fruits, you know, 

It gives me shade and happiness, indeed,

And helps us a lot when we need.
The birds build their nests,
The tree is like their treasure chest,   

          Squirrels love to play,
And monkeys jump here all day.
Children play around my tree,
They pick the fruits from here for free,
Once in a year there are beautiful flowers,
In autumn they fall in a shower.
The tree is there for almost thirteen years,
As if it’s attached to the soil without fears,
That’s my tree, I say,
It will stand here all day.
Whether day or night,
The tree always stands upright,
Rain and storm could not uproot the tree,
That’s my tree, I say,
It will stand here all day.

    Very nice! Beautiful! You stated it all rather simplistically but pictured it so very well....the accompanying image enhanced the poem delightfully. This was very enjoyable! Your end-rhyming was very pleasant and rythm nice as well. I liked this...made me smile happily!

    I love it, well I feel moved by this tree too.
    I like the feeling it has, like a protector and a cherished friend or small brother.
    Very beautiful
    Best
