Tree of Eden

My roots dig deep
still in search of
an answer.

My branches reach out
to part the wisdom - 
(mere seeds of change)
I hide the truth
in my shadows,
but for a few
who care.

While my kin,
walk carelessly
over my tears … 

… which fall to earth
soft and velvet -
(flowers of 
vibrant colours)
Bringing back
memories of
the lovers … 

… and of a time, 
when a tree, 
fell in love with a butterfly.

(And bore a fruit
that would 
alter the course
of human life.)
