Our poem is comprised of 10 quatrain stanzas, each with verses of irregular length. In each stanza, the tree is personified and is also a synecdoche; as it represents the entirety of our environment, and the stanzas respectively tackle a different benefit given to us by trees, such as shade, fruit, and the encompassing of birds and other wildlife. In addition, all stanzas make sure to ask Why?, and Did you forget? this is in order to evoke a feeling of guilt, and sympathy, although the opening stanza essentially summarizes all of the trees’ points and messages, in order to avoid beating around the Bush and getting the point. In the final 2 stanzas; the tone of the poem takes a pivotal shift, as this time the tree is offering a humble solution to the problems faced, which is to make peace with nature rather than destroy.

As we were walking in the countryside, we were caught by an amazing sight of tens of butterflies flying around this flowery bush. It is a quite a rare sight nowadays to see a butterfly due to lack of green areas in the city or village so seeing tens altogether was quite a blessing. Butterflies are great for plants because their bodies collect pollen and carry it to other plants. This helps fruits, vegetables and flowers to produce new seeds. This little fellow was so busy doing his job that he wasn’t bothered by the interruption at all.

A no-longer-so-new kind of tree … a new alien species that we can’t seem to be able to get rid of any time soon. The Greed Tree. Soon there will be more of the Greed Tree than the Natural Trees.

Piles of bulky rubbish left to rust over the years in the middle of our precious countryside. People complain that there is no greenery left and yet they have this urge to litter and dispose of their unwanted things in nature!
