A TREE

I absorb sewage water

I bloom flowers nearing to sky

I utilize the dirt under the tree as my food

I give up fruits on top

The earth is dried due to spring

You bring new leaves and be bright

I behave like a roof in hot summer

Make the ground cool

I become dried due to snow to winter

I stand naked by making all my leaves fall

In autumn I don’t give a single leaf

to thunder or any spirit

  

I am not dirty, or not untidy

I am not living for myself

I don’t trouble anyone

I don’t have any help from anyone

I fulfill others need

I die by serving others

I don’t smell even if I die

You stink if you die
