Poetry
A Bamboo takes three years to Grow
It can be cut down within 5 minutes
It was a young green bamboo tree, It moved and shook in the gentle breeze. The young bamboo tree was new and alive, It moved towards the sunshine with ease.
A new relationship is like a young bamboo, Special, alive, vibrant, and so true. Communication and listening are the keys, To make all relationships as strong as trees.
The bamboo tree grew from strength to strength, The strong winds could not leave a dent. The weather changed and the waters rose, The strong bamboo stood and held its pose.
The winds of change came so strong, Making everything in the relationship go wrong. Their understanding was honest and true, Their friendship was refreshed and new.
The bamboo farmer came on a sunny day, It was time for him to take the bamboo away. He waved his sharp blade up and down, As the bamboo fell helplessly to the ground.
Money and greed had their wicked way, Cutting the friendship every month and day. The snake of envy had its jealous way, As the relationship was poisoned away.
A bamboo tree takes three years to grow, Its growth is healthy, firm, and slow. In five minutes, it can be struck down, As it falls to the wet and muddy ground.
