I AM A TREE
Oh Alas – I am a tree
My roots are deep,
My branches – free.
I stand alone
My work is calm,
Sometimes a Pine...
Sometimes a Palm.
Oh Alas - I am a tree
My roots are deep
My branches free.
Sometimes I sway
Sometimes I bend
Sometimes I break...
And then I mend.
Oh Alas - I am a tree
My roots are deep
My branches free.
So many birds
Come visit me.
I feel their Love
They comfort me.
Oh Alas – I am a tree
My roots are deep
My branches free.
The storms that pass
They test my strength
They push and pull...
And then at length..
Sometimes I break
Sometimes I die
But Oh Alas...
I am a tree.
Nature prevails..especially in the forest
