The Peepal Tree Poem by M. Asim Nehal

The Peepal Tree

Rating: 4.7


In the fields of green,
amidst the blooming flowers,
stands the Peepal tree,
Its boughs stretch high to the sky,
a symbol of strength and grace.

Its leaves rustle soft,
like whispers in the summer breeze,
Its branches sway free,
a dance of nature's glory,
a gift to all who can see.

In every season,
The Peepal tree stands tall and true,
a beacon of hope,
a tribute to life's beauty,
a reminder of what we can do.

On the contrary,
while surrounded by overpasses and highways,
his relative Peepal is enduring a difficult existence
Toxic fumes emanated by automobiles,
depriving him and his foliage of fresh air
His plea for assistance goes unheard.

My heart cries for the second tree which is facing all man made troubles, we have become insensitive towards nature and other creatures. A sorry state of affairs.

Peepul is symbolic of life, love and caring. For it gives and supports life. That is why is sacred

We do need trees everywhere.. but in in places of human dwellings we don't value them high the way they are...a good poem for trees' importance
