"Is it really necessary to go?", it asked,it 's eyes mirroring the question why;
The traveller looked up and gave a smile;
Yes i 've to go, he replied.
I know you gave me shade and food and comfort for several days and night,
But then that's what you are supposed to do right?
Don't think i m ungrateful, take my thank you before my goodbye.
But then u are not my destination but just a tree on the path;
Feel sorry to tell u ,but then we 've no emotional connect that would last;
Saying this, the traveller went speeding on his horse to where the sun rose high,
The tree letting out a deep sigh;
"No emotional connect" he said,
But then why did the tree took care of him when he was weary and half dead.
No one to see the love which went out with every sway of the leaves,
No one to judge the care that it bestowed on on its every fruit which he ate.
But then he is a tree..rooted and bonded to the earth,
He cannot run after him,
He is almost dead for the world,
So it will remain where it was ,
Looking sadly at the spot where the traveller said his goodbye last.
