Like me this Gumtree is ancient
And has seen a few many springs,
Its heart is there on display
For every one to see.
It is not perfect,
Neither is love,
Only youth strives
To attain this ideal.
It has had a few knocks
Here and there,
So has mine
And so has yours, I bet.
From its core
Sprouts a new regrowth
For one cannot destroy love.
As long as the tree will stand
Love will endure.
