Yours Loving Log

Once upon a time I was blooming tree in your garden;

Bearing fresh flowers and fruits for you alone;

You spoke to me, and took care of me; as if you and I were one;

But as time flew by, new friends and pass times took precedence over me;

And I was left to languish and die;

My roots gave up, my torso grew weak;

And then there came a day, when I could stand no more.

Today, I am reduced to pieces;

But still I can’t stop loving you;

So how about axing me, and chopping me into pieces;

For I can light up your midnight lamp today;

Or simply burn me up in your hearth today;

And brew some delicious broth;

Still thinking; don’t do that;

For who knows the rain gods might just ruin me;

Or even the termites could conquer me;

Before that happens, embrace me and take me in your loving care;

For I want to end this earthly sojourn: simply serving you; simply loving you.
