~ CITY TREE ~
Aye city tree,
I cry for thee,
When thee I see,
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย I hide the tears....
Arms vernal yearn,
Desire to burn,
But men shall learn,
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย With passing years.....
That trees feel too,
As I for you,
We'll start anew,
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย I'll mend thy pains....
You shall be me,
And I a tree,
We both agree
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย We'll meet again....
Stronger than I,
Bold in the sky,
Shall never die,
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย My pen thy word....
For I am me,
And thou art tree,
We two of He,
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย As is the bird....
Tony Taylor
