任它春风绿遍天涯

                任它春雨红尽枝桠

                那株老树兀自不发新绿

                那丛秃枝依旧不吐芳葩

                槐叶在三百年前就泣尽了

                一如离散流徙的文臣武官

                槐花在三百年前就啼尽了

                一如破碎枯槁的剩水残山

                自恨并非参天大树

                成不了扶危定倾的栋梁之材

                老树发出阵阵抽搐

                在崇祯途穷自缢时呜咽鸣哀

                虬枝如臂  痛苦地扭曲着

                向苍天质问  向苍天呼号

                树洞如口  凄然地颤抖着

                向苍生泣诉  向苍生哀告

                何以励精图治之君

                却成亡国丧身之主

                天时不与  恰当亡国之运

                人和不复  终乏救亡之术

                挂一段王朝历史的休止符

                在枯枝的绞刑架上

                悬一幕人生悲剧的感叹号

                在老树的无字碑旁
