Our Magnificent Trees

The branches are high,
Under the night sky,
The branches wave,
In the forest cave,
Your branches sway with the breeze,
Every day you give us ease,
Coconut, Willow and Oak,
Your branches rising like smoke,
I’m sorry we’ve wasted your bark,
Every time I feel a bad spark,
We’ve hurt you too much,
Please don’t suffer in our clutch,
Your big bushy leaves,
Fall down my jacket sleeves,
I hope you always stay,
I’ll visit you every day.
