The Tree

As a minuscule seed
In a vast earth
It waits to be born
From the waters of mankind

As it grows taller
Its branches expanding
Buds begin to form
And leaves are coming to be

Spring is in the air
Its time to blossom
Time to show the world
All it has to offer

Years go by
And it is fully grown
Standing tall and proud
Its full beauty is realized
