The big Olive tree

The big Olive tree

At the facade of my home

Told me: “you are free

To wander heaven’s dome

 

You are grounded to the soil

But, send your branches up above

Your fruits are full of vital oil

Your leaves like wings of dove

 

O mighty tree,” I said to it

Your symbols like an ancient mark

 Remind me for a little bit

The Dove, the Olive leaf, the Arc.

 

This biblical story of the Flood

Might lead us to a sacred birth

Which will reveal a greenish bud

A trace for our brand New Earth”.
