Nurtured
over the years,
green and
flowingly full
of life
she keeps to herself
in the balcony,
upright, solitary,
shielding from the sun,
keeping
an inobtrusive eye
on the events.
For a while
they all forgot
about her,
as they
attended to the Big Tree….
She understands.
You can become a Big Tree
when you learn
to give
unstintingly
of yourself
to the other trees.
She sees the lady
and the young ones,
back
in her life,
brave but forlorn,
and she bends a bit
in the sun,
to brush against
a watering hand,
her own tribute
to the Big Tree
as she
sheds a tear of her own……
Whenever something or someone falls down, there are hands of comfort waiting to hold you and stop u from falling….its upto the person to fall into the hands or through the hands on to the ground….ooohhhh, too much gyaan…. 😉
Congrats on the 25th Silver jubilee 🙂
A lovely shot!
