The transplantation

 

 

Where the soil is familiar to the sap

The sun moves on known walls in the day

And breeze blows similar tunes to the dangling ear

The bark stands tall and overpowering

With lush arms spread in resplendence

The dexterity to bend in ambushing tempest

And stoutness to deflect the slipping hail

 For he has built this shelter from the seed

The convenience to the young sapling

Beneath the shield of the able branch

Stunts , limits, corrodes and stifles

Dispersion is the seed of all strength

The vehement knock on the laboring walls

When the land is adverse and unknown

Opens not just doors but it sprouts new horizons.
