A Tree Asked A River

A tree asked a river
“How beautiful it must be
To travel to different places
Tell me what do you see?
Is the sun as generous
And bright as he is here?”

“Yes,” the river answered
“All the places where I flow
Wherever I may take my soul
The sun is equally beautiful
A magnificent golden whole”

And the tree asked again
“And what about the men?
Are they any different
From the ones we see here?”

The river gave a long sigh
And the tree got her answer
