Blooming Magnolia

Blooming magnolia 
Tree in the square 
Twisting and branching out
Flowering each layer 
Blooming magnolia 
Providing Shade for the poor 
Giving petals to the little girls 
Providing wood for the store 
Blooming magnolia 
Tattooed with names 
Scratched in hearts by brass hunting knifes 
Leaving a lost love stain 
Blooming magnolia 
Growing old with age 
Sweeping leaves across the court 
The lark's harbor from the storming cage 
Blooming magnolia 
The signature of that first kiss
Withering blissfully away 
You are the world's witness
