Analysis of About a tree of life

Cynthia novotny 1984 (Wilmington de)



Like a tree that blooms fruit
It may not blossom all year
But a heart that beats strong
Will always keep blossoming beautifully

We may not always have a tree
For it may not always be strong
It takes good people that we meet
They are the trees that grow within

We as people learn to grow up
We start as little trees first
Then we grow up over the years
Some people that do are beautiful

So let us treat people with kindness
Show them while they are here now
Don’t wait until it’s too late
For we don’t know when the branches stop
