"On killing a tree" is a sensetive poem by Gieve Patel.He explains the difficulty in killing a tree.He starts by saying that killing a tree takes time and won't be accomplished by a knife stab.The tree has taken much time to grow and become strong,he also says that It needs to take sunlight,water,air and nutrients from the soil to gradually become a huge tree.It developes a strong trunk and gets numerous leaves.Merely cutting the trunk of the tree does not kill it,the roots which are white in colour and are damp due to the moisture that they get from the soil are hidden in a pit in the earth.These roots are the most sensetive part of the tree as they bind it to the earth.In order to kill the tree,these roots have to detached from the soil.Once the roots are detached,the tree starts dying ,It withers,dries up with the action of heat and wind,twists,hardens and finally dies.

Write a Substance on killing a tree.

The central idea in this poem is that the act of killing a tree—or, on a broader scale, destroying the environment—is not confined to a single action.

We cannot pretend that the slow destruction of our forests and our landscapes is a result of accident.

The poet persuades the reader not to destroy trees and equates it with “killing” a human being.

He says that a plant takes sunlight, water, air and nutrients from the soil to gradually become a huge tree.

It develops a strong trunk and gets numerous leaves.
