broken oak........

As they have to you, tree, broken,

As you stay erect in your being stranger!

Thousand times you have toleradet

As long as were in you tenacity and will!

I'm similar to you, with my wounds,

I haven't betrayed te life offense

And every day from the sourness endured

I raise still the forehaed in the light.

How much was in me of sweet and delicate

The world has hurt it to death,

But my nature is indestructible,

i'm satisfied, satisfied,

Patient i put new leaves

On the thousand times broken branch,

And although the pain i remain

Sweetheart in this crazy world.

 

Hermann Hesse.

 

because the LOVE is force, not weakness.
