I’m a Tree

by Teresa Manimala aged 7

I’m just some wood in a cargo box
Carried by a fellow ox
But they don’t care what’s inside
They just take me with pride

I’m a tree, I’m a tree
I long to be free
It’s me, it’s me, it’s me

You can use some of me, some…
But you use a lot to get the job done!
What if you were wood,
And couldn’t do what you could?

It’s me, I’m a tree
I long to be free
You just see half of meee

I give you air and care
But you just take me for granted
I have green leaves
But don’t make me lean to the ground

I’m a tree, I’m a tree
I long to be free
It’s me, it’s me, it’s meee…
