Only God Can Make a Tree

The fool who wrote this pieceWould wonder if he did missThe essence of its messageOr time in its passage.
The trees are gone with the cloud,Laying a desert on its path,While the winds applaudAn evil aftermath.
I think I shall finally seeA kind-hearted man plant a tree,For he who truly loves Thee,Shall love others through a tree. ~
