POEM: Tree Power

By Berniegourley @berniegourley

The Buddha became enlightened

under an old fig tree

Jesus prayed in Gethsemane

under an olive tree

Isaac Newton's epiphany came

under an apple tree

If you can't figure out how to change your world,

seems to me

you should find a tree and put your back into it.
