Answer 2

Answer:

The poet says that if we wish to kill a tree it takes a lot of time. A simple job of the knife can’t kill a tree. A tree grows up by getting food and other nutritious from the earth. It absorbs sunlight, air and water for years and becomes very strong. If we try to hack and chop it, it does not feel much pain. Its bleeding bark heals very soon. Small twigs begin to shoot up from it and soon they become very big and strong.
