there is this tree
it stands alone in a lush garden
vines climb the trunk
close to the green leaves
and blossoms
it was planted in the beginning
a lonesome seed at the time
that's all it took
the ancient tree
could last forever
that is if we don't wreck this planet first
that's why I try so hard
I can't let any of them go down
I'll protect them with my whole life
my sister dangles her feet from the branches
my mother picks the fruit for us
my father prunes the branches
we're all involved
come at it with an axe
I dare you
my response if deadly
oh you dare not?
that's what I thought
this is our tree
long leafy branches
deep roots
ripe fruit
this is our tree
