this tree!

We, all trees of life

Plants bear we devour
animals kill and also flower
humans alone eat and devour
each other hour by hour

no one will leave
ere the grave
so to face critique be brave

The sun has never set they say
why then we ourselves
should we betray

we are those trees
which alone seed
the genes have become immortal
notwithstanding which tree

there is no soul
there are no spirits
it's only your attitude still
which does not yet you still!

and so continue to fertilize the soil
why let anyone your seed spoil
toil as you may
some day
will come
when we all will go away

no seed shall ever remain
genes will self sustain
we are the parent tree

live my friend with greater ability
you,each one, are the

TREE

in capitals here
why then have you any fear.
my dear!
