A gentle guide, a sturdy friend,
Long and lean, a helping hand,
Keeping balance, safe to lend.
Insects flee, its presence known,
Nature's wonder, standing alone,
Graciously, it takes its place,
Supporting life, with steady pace.
Through sun and shade, it stands so tall,
In every season, answering the call.
Change and growth, it does embrace,
Known for its strength, its gentle grace.
