THE LIVING TREE

I held Poetry clinic With My students, JSS 3 students, At Cedar Mathetain College @ off Ade Oyo Road off Ring Road, And within a week about 13 out OF 15 are able to write impressive poems. I asked them permission to post them on My wall And It was granted.
The second to be posted Is titled: ' The Living Tree ' by OBALOLUWA OLORUNTADE .

THE LIVING TREE
Filled with fruit and birds,
Surrounded with green grasses
And lovely flowers
Beautifying environment with lovely fruits
Which brings forth lovely singing birds
And colourful flowers shunning light, beautiful
The living tree

Every morning I come out
Out to see the beauty of the tree
There are  days I eat it's lovely fruit
Life and bliss into me it brings
And hears the hymn of it's melodious birds The Living tree

In the rain with it's extensive branches covers me
Though wet just keep me from the rain
It's fruits relieves me from hunger
Always waves at me when I for out
The Living Tree

At autumn a warm home for the birds
At summer it provides shade for me
Enduring the sun to provide me a shade
And smiling at me when I am sad
Whistling through the wind to put me to sleep
At the garden never wait for sunshine
To wake me with the dawn
The Living Tree
