Direct Answer:
Through the first and last stanzas of the poem, the poet is making a contrast on the growth and death of tree. It takes a long time for a tree to grow tall, high up in the sky but in just 10 minutes, 3 men had chopped and ripped it all up.
Detailed Answer:
"It takes years to grow and seconds to fall."
Through the first and last stanzas of the poem, the poet is contrasting on how short time it takes to destroy something that took years to reach the peaks. From a seedling to a tree, it takes many years of sprouting and branching to reach out into the blue sky but just three axes of three men chopped it down to the earth in a matter of 10 minutes.
It takes years of hardwork, nutrition, efforts, determination and many other factors that helps a tree to grow tall and strong but the mere strike of an axe makes a hefty wound and it bleeds. Some more strikes will kill it eventually. All those years of branching out into the cloudy sky just ended through some strong strikes in just 10 minutes.
