The Wise Old Banyan Tree

The wise old banyan tree
It stood the test of time

The banyan tree, the longer it stood
The wisdom of ages, etched in its wood

Ever growing, its roots grew down
Deeper, and deeper, under the ground

The tree was wise, beyond all compare
A timeless beauty, as it stood there

Secrets of life held, within its branches
Wisdom known, as the seeker advances

The old banyan tree, it told a story or two
But its wisdom was only, known to a few
