Tree

If I were ever asked what a friend should be

I think that I would say a tree

Whether the weather is foul or fair

You know that a tree will always be there

It will shade you from the summer heat

When hungry, it will give you something to eat

It filters your water and gives you air to breathe

It seeds the clouds, carbon from the atmosphere it does retrieve

It gives you shelter and medicine

It never asks where you have been

It doesn\'t speak or argue

It will never be rude or hurt you

Winter, spring, summer or fall

In return for what it gives it asks nothing at all
