A Golden Tree

A Golden Tree

A story of a man who was lost
and tired, sick as can be. He
wandered around, looking for the
golden tree. Couldn't find what
he was looking for and said
"Damn you tree, why do you do
this to me? Drink and eat just to
please my mind, do evil things so
my life would rhyme with everything
I see. Has God abandoned me?"
The man continued to wander,
falling into despair. He soon
became a man without a worry,
a man that didn't care. He was
running away, away from his fears.
Instead of relief, he found more
pain, more tears. The man then
shouted "Let it rain, let it rain on
me! The golden tree has abandoned
me! Cleanse my sins, cleanse
my soul, I want no more of this!"
Like a drunk man, he stumbled
around looking for his salvation,
the golden tree. No such luck.
Every step he took was a step
closer to death. Like being on a
pyre, all he felt was insatiable
desire. The man said "I'm tired,
tired of looking for a false dream.
The golden tree is not what it
seems. God, why do you torment
with this dream?" The man then
shouted again "Please, let it rain
on me! Save my soul before the
devil gets to me! Please, the
golden tree has abandoned me!"
The man suddenly fell down.
"I see the golden tree! It is
coming to me. I have waited long
for this day to be." After those
last words, the man died. He
finally found the golden tree.
