Planting a tree immersed in love

Plant me a tree full of love and patience
Let the sun shine its wonderful rays of light
making the tree prosper into t a wonderful healthy tree
Rain drops will fall from the sky discouraging the tree from weeping in misery
Plant me a tree that will be as beautiful as a heart
Please just plant me a tree I can cherish until the day it dies
Since nothing special can last forever
Plant me a tree
full of
love
and
patience

I like this poem very much; it was very beautiful, and I love the message that you are conveying. Nothing more can be said but that I loved this piece!
