Simply a Tree

A Tree
Merely just the seemingly insignificant 
Live form of which we take as no more than mediocre 
But what lies beneath the intricate layers of time
Is something of sudden significance
A work of art
Natural genius
A Tree
Life upon all life, a form of life that provides and sustains
In a way not visible, yet physical
Laden with meaning and reproduction
Leaves of which come and go like the wind
They leave unknown but for a cause 
They leave because they see opportunity 
They leave to become
Simply
A tree
