An Ode to a Tree

By Kartix

An ode to a tree

Special thanks to Divya Mudappa and TR Shankar Raman for remembering
which sapling I planted two decades ago!

Out there somewhere far far away, on a beautiful hill near a streamStands tall a tree you planted, feels like eons agoWhile a bird perches on itto get a good view of its prey,another sucks whole a juicy berry, flies awayFlying wonders come visiting the bright red flowerswhile walking wonders march along root to branchThe roots talk to the soil through friendly fungiAnd the branches have begun hosting socials with vibrant orchids
When you can't sleep at night,you feel you couldn't change a thingRemember that seed became a seedling, and that tree may one day, a hub tree
