Cry of Silence

A persimmon tree takes roots on stones
A rock is taken and it is a little bit shaken

On the stones, a persimmon tree lays hope

3 stones left, to the right a persimmon tree is prone
"It is getting stronger," said men and women

2 stones left, down a persimmon tree is prone
"It is getting stronger," said men and women

1 stone left, to the ground a persimmon tree is prone
"It is getting stronger," said men and women

A persimmon tree will take away the last stone herself, it wants to be gone
When a bird descends on its branches bend

Will a bird hold its feather to the tree's bone
or peck the last stone away for her

Will a persimmon tree be told of life better at the ground
or as an antique cabinet will it end
