Four Leaves from the First Noble Tree

They do not choose to bud,
nor shape nor size,

(truth)
They do not choose bugs
that modify look and function.
(truth)
They do not choose a color to become
when season and weather impose.
Unable to self-sustain,
masks of labor and self import removed,
nature revealed.

(truth)
They do not choose when to fall,
what park or gutter to decay,
return to soil.
(truth)
Free from bud, free from branch,
(free from birth)
free from bug, free from change   
(free from sickness)

(free from age)
free from falling, free from decay
(free from death)

(never enchained by truths in the first place)
