The Cairns Pencil Cedar in the Daintree

The pencil cedar's great wide trunk stretched beyond the Daintree’s touch

Its towering figure stretched high, all the way to the sky.

The pencil cedar, the mighty tree, was enough to make a giant flee

In the depths of the Daintree, the pencil cedar spread its legs.

Endangered in the depths, so high did it stretch

Like a tower in a town of green.
