Tend to Their Tree

Plant a seed

And tend to their tree

Before it becomes a weed.

Give the water,

The soil,

The love

It needs.

Love their tree

No matter

The size,

The shape,

The work

It takes.

Expose it to hate

To create the strength

It will need to become

Unstoppable.

But don't forget

To love it

Before the hate

Makes their tree

Disintegrate

And then it's too late.
