    Joshua Tree

     I may look dead
    I may be bent over
    I may be hanging to one side or the other
    I may appear fragile
    My limbs may look wither and brown
    My body maybe lean
    My very tips may scratch at the ground
    I am not tall or massive
    I am not painted with the colors of the rainbow

    But

    I need very little to survive and grow
    I am strong and mighty in my own right
    Look closer at me I am bearing fruit
    Most of my life I am reaching towards the heavens
    I am shading the driest of lands
    I grow wild and stand sturdy in environments that others can not even take roots
    I can stand alone in the harsh of elements
    My beauty is unique and unmistakeable
    I may look as if the end of my life is near
    But look closer and you will see I am only just blooming
