I wonder at your beauty, strong Your height tells me you've stood there long Your beauty protrudes from limbs so grand Providing cover where you stand...
You glisten in the morning dew As the sky does lighten A mother robin does joins you, true Upon your sturdy arms, which, do her brighten...
Your provide such shelter From the helter-skelter For creatures, such as squirrels and possums Above the wildflowers' lovely blossoms...
Now and then, a cat does race To, frantically, its quarry chase And, bird do find your crown Helpful as they look around...
Sometime ago, you were but a shoot Which could have been stomped underfoot Now, you show your majesty By having grown into a tree.
