Its economic importance is very high.
Expensive it is and not easily found.
Where it’s found is highly privilege.
Its financial benefit can upgrade its owner.
With all these virtues this tree is been deserted.
The rain has refused to fall on it.
Yet the owner will not water it.
The sun has also not been of help.
The soil has refused coming to its aid.
The little minerals it tries absorbing has been denied
Refusal has been the word it hears mostly.
And sadness has been its mood always.
It struggles hard for survival.
The wind might blow him little hope.
But a farmer who knows its importance is coming.
And will show the tree love like never before.
