The still slow life is mine, my days are years. 
Tied to the soil, I reach towards the sky, 
as men rush by, so driven by their fears, 
and with their fears intact pass on and die. 

from Plato’s Olive Tree
Unknown author ??? 

Olive Tree is the symbol of peace .... 
the ancient olive trees are regarded by Palestinians as a symbol 
of their connection to the land.
