Waking from the ashes I’m reaching for the sky
The sun drops they are cleansing
I know not where or why
Each arm slowly twisting
I’m searching for the light
The darkness I’m not fearing
As I churn in the morning light
My roots are sinking deeper
I can feel the warmth within
The softness of the soil
As my growth starts deep with in
Looking for my footing
Searching for the sun
I’m reach for the cosmos
My life has just begun
The days and years are passing
I’m reaching for the sky
Ripping through the skyline
As my leaves brown , decay and die
I’m holding in the strong winds
I’m waving in the air
Watching the seasons changing
As autumn strips me bare
The sun setting a little early
My bedtime comes to call
I’m watching all the animals
As they shelter from the colds
Autumn turns to winter
My leaves they have gone
Watching all the snowflakes
Wondering where my summer have gone
