IN PRAISE OF TREES ~ A PANTOUM

 

TO US ALL TREES ARE SPECIAL ~ THE LUNGS OF PLANET EARTH !

 

ALL TREES are wonderful to see

The ASH the ELM the OAK the PINE

Each type of TREE - a living  mystery

Each TREE has a presence so DIVINE !

 

The ASH the ELM the OAK the PINE

Difference but sameness we can see

Each TREE has presence so - DIVINE

They have a TRUNK and BRANCHES - spreading free  

 

Difference but sameness we can see

Shape of their LEAVES and taste of FRUIT they bear

They have a TRUNK and BRANCHES - spreading free

But this TREE bears an APPLE - that one PEAR !  

 

Shape of their LEAVES and taste of FRUIT they bear

BUT there*s a special function - each green leaf can do

But this TREE bears an APPLE - that one PEAR

Each leaf breaths out OXYGEN and breaths in CO2 !

 

BUT there*s a special function - each green leaf can do

Each type of TREE - a living mystery 

Each leaf breaths out OXYGEN and breaths in CO2

ALL TREES are wonderful to see !
