The immortal tree

I am standing tall,

Leaves are falling, all around

They are forming,

A colourful carpet, all around me

I am standing tall,

The snow has fallen,

The homeless tent below lies exposed

I can not protect them anymore, from the sun

I am standing tall

Buds blossoming, all around

Flowers blooming everywhere

Birds are chirping happily

I am standing tall

In all my glory

The sun is furious above

I am sheltering the harmless from the sun's fury

I may die

But my roots still

Pass on my memories

I am the immortal elm tree
