The Tree
The tree play’s a lonely solitary stance.
Upon the wind it sways and dance’s.
Stretching its arm as far it can reach.
Shedding its bounty of pears so sweet.
It is just a tree.
Unlike us it is free.
Proud and strong in a changing moods.
Bearing fruit tender and good.
Still its leave’s are shimmering green.
When autumn comes a change can be seen.
Leaves changing color to a golden brown.
And falling softly to a velvety ground.
In the wind you catch the rustling sound.
In a habitat that constantly evolves.
In a world that forever revolves.
And the children from the branches sing.
From a rope tied tight they gently swing.
Laughter heard escaping softly on a wind.
