prompted by a photo of a tree in a stone hand

This tree, its life began
as a tiny seed held in my hand.
Into a sapling, I watched it grow
surviving both drought and snow.

On it grew, reaching for the sun
with many roots, deeply run.
Yet, still this tree, in my hand remains
now shelter from the sun and rains.
