Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Taking More and More

I am a coconut tree who

Is surrounded by humankind,

Always concerned what they might do

When there is taking in their mind.

Okay, when they use me for shade.

Okay, when my fruit they do take.

Even okay, when my sap's made

Into wine for their drinking sake.

But humankind has gained renown

For making us trees disappear.

They want the wood, so cut us down.

For trees this is a daily fear.

Seeing a human with an ax

Is gonna stress me to the max.
