Poor Plant

Enjoying the lush green rainforest,
Looking at the beautiful trees,
Hearing the birds singing,
3 by 3 by 3.
I see a rope and my friends on the other side,
I see a plant standing still and healthy,
I tried to join my friends who are watching me,
But, oh, what a pity!
My right foot tangled on the rope,
As I struggle to stand up,
But I couldn't...
I fell face first onto something soft,
I lifted my foot off the rope...
And gently stood up,
I cleaned myself
And looked down...
There was what I saw,
The beautiful plant that once stood still and healthy,
Was squashed and now slumped and dirty,
I say to myself, "I'm sorry poor plant!"
