The little tree waves hello!
I wave back with growing optimism.The tree grows every day,
I can't wait to see when it's old,
Just like me,
Like he
And like she.The little tree cannot wave anymore.
Its little limbs were chopped off
By a saw.
But was this by law?
Or by nothing but that dreadful saw?The little tree can't smile anymore.
Of course,
Unless I write it down by force
On the piece of paper on which
It's made from.
