I am a tree

I am a tree,
this is me,

Strong Winds and lighting only prune me!

Ice and Snow only show me my strength!

I bend defiantly against the tornadoes!

I grow towards the scorching, withering sun!

I laugh in the torrential rains!

I sing as all life dies around me!

I invite my enemies to try to subdue me,

There is nothing you, LIFE, can send me that I can not/ have not mastered!

To stop me, LIFE, you must cheat by taking my life away!

I am a tree,
THIS is me!
