The Tree Upon A Ledge - Never Give Up

A tree that grows so well upon a ledge Has umpteen truths to tell to men on earth; Was it from seed to sapling, then to tree? How come it stands precariously thus perched? But then it grows up straight towards the sun; Its roots are strong and keep it balanced well, Providing nutrition it needs with time; The rain gives water adequate for growth. God's hands protect it from getting destroyed; It may not give men shade or flowers, fruits; No bird has built its nest on it so far; Yet, God has permitted it life unique! It stands as example to God's great works; It lives although it is of not much use; Akin a freak born child, it grows afree; God has a purpose for this tree unknown. Let men all learn that Mother Nature's great; No man can ever equal her prowess; The grace of God is blessing most required; The Will of God all creatures must obey!
