Trees

by Lucy aged 8

Trees are good,
They supply us with food –
Paper, chairs, tables and more!

Trees are our friends,
We need them to live!
A crucial part of our Earth,
I love trees,
And soon you will see,

That the chair you’re sitting on,
May have been a tree!

Trees are amazing,
And now you can see
Why trees are useful!

They stretch their long arms out,
And grab a bird,
Swaying and dancing galore!

Trees are like us,
They can feel, touch and cry,
Though we may not hear it or see it it’s here in our heart.

So go help a tree,
We need them to live.
Our Earth is so pretty
Because of the trees.

Yet we take them for granted,
We use them for things,
What if they used us for that?

You don’t think about their feelings,
And even if you do,
We still chop over and over,
gather again,
Chop, gather, and burn.
