The tree in the center of the bush

The tree in the centre of the bush
The tree that has been through all
Its branches are like arms reaching for the sky

As I sit and wonder what the future holds in store
I notice that one of its branches had fallen
The branch was like a beached whale on the sand

The branch was leaning on the tree,
The tree in the centre of the bush

The years that this tree has spent,
Growing to this immense form of being
Passing the time by gaining knowledge of the forest
The tree in the centre of the bush
