Oh how I wish I were an old oak tree
Standing so tall and
Strong
Knowing so well where it does
Belong
It speaks so loud not making a
Sound
With roots inbedded so deep into the
Ground
It's seen swaying back and forth but never
Falling
Standing idoly by as nature is
Calling
Feeling no pain or hunger nor sadness or
Sorrow
Faithfully knowing it will be standing strong still
Tomorrow
It knows no fear and has no desire to
Flee
Oh how I wish I were and old oak
Tree
