The Love Tree
There was an old tree
at the corner of the street
so big and imposing
that everybody tried to climb it
some people weren't strong enough
to grasp the branches
so they fell
before reaching the peak
some were too heavy
when these tried to
reside in the tree
they broke the branches
there was one person
tall, thin and gentle
he reached the top
after struggling many years
he settled there
his beautiful wife aside
but the scenery was so attractive
that he started to watch
