The man who planted trees

I forget the name ,
whenever I am in self doubt
or pessimistic mood ,
I think of this man
who planted trees
day in , day out
without uttering a word
for years , decades
to see a dry , arid
and inhospitable landscape
turn into a breezy
lush green haven .
Who was that ?
Let me imbibe his soul
in letter , spirit ,
and most importantly
in deed .
