There once stood a lavender tree
distinct from all the rest
it had no leaves nor bore no fruit
but thriving nonetheless
With roots deeply grounded
blanketed in soft green grass
unequal in beauty to it’s towering neighbors
but whose roots could not surpass
The sturdiness of the lavender tree
with branches reaching open sky
basking in the light of the sun
a beauty worth seeing far and wide
