What is a Tree?

To a CARPENTER, it is TABLE

To a FISHERMAN, it is a BOAT that carries him across the waters.

To a PLOUGH MAN, it is a YOKE to harness his oxen.

To a VILLAGE WOMAN, it is FIREWOOD to cook the evening meal.

To a SHEPHERD, it is FODDER for crows and goats.

To a FARMER, it is what prevents the GOOD SOIL from being washed away.

To a CHILD, it is something to RUN AROUND and PLAY.

To a weary TRAVELER, it is SHADE from the sun and SHELTER from the rain.

To the BIRDS and BEASTS of the forest, it is HOME

For Humankind, it is part of a vast green blanket that protects us from the intense rays of the sun.

To our planet EARTH, it is the LUNGS.

Trees produce the Oxygen that we breathe
