I have a dream that one day the seeds we are planting today would grow into a tree.
A tree which has deep roots with multiple branches and multiple leaves with single colour ,
A tree which is as big at the top as it is down under,
A tree which would be used by the poor to feed their chulhas and by the rich to furnish their mansions,
A tree which would shed it leaves but still grow green the next season,
A tree which would be a nesting place for the birds and a play ground for the kiddos,
A tree whose falling apples would nurture multiple Newtons and whose own falling would beckon multiple Chipkos,
A tree which would selflessly let itself be used and never complain,
A tree whose every part would be used and not go in vain,
A tree which would gather its own food and not need me to water it to grow,
A tree which would always remain grounded whether it is big or very low,
I hope it would be a tree which would remain till eternity in its roots, in its dreams, in its reality, in its fraternity, in every moment to come and go, in every storm which makes it bow,in every summer which needs shade, in every rain to not get drenched, I hope it is there to be, I hope it would be with me,
Because I have a dream.
