412. FALLEN FROM SURRENDER-TREE
You have fallenFrom surrender-tree.
You cannot climb up
Devotion-tree any more.
Love-tree does not want
Even to see you,
For you have time and again
Disappointed love-tree
By climbing earthbound desire-banyan tree.
Sri Chinmoy, Ten Thousand Flower-Flames, Part 5, Agni Press, New York, 1979
