Lightning Strikes a Tree ❤️

So sad when this happens ❤️

Lightning Strikes a Tree❤️

Lightning strikes, the tree must bend,

A flash, a crack—will this be its end?

The air is loud, the rain pours fast,

The mighty tree must face the blast.

Its trunk is torn, its bark turns black,

Yet still it stands, it won’t fall back.

The storm rolls on, the winds grow weak,

The dawn appears, the light will speak.

From broken wood, new shoots will grow,

Life returns, as seasons show.

Lightning strikes, but can’t defeat,

The tree’s strong roots, its heart still beats.❤️

    Nature can withstand, a strong soul can do the same. As we are all one with nature.
