117 Branch on Fire
117.
Branch on Fire
Up above the tree
Of courage and bravery
It fell down lazily
To burning trash underneath thee
Then a beast to man a bestfriend
Came by as if to defend
This twig from being churned
In order to be mend
From stone the twig was gone
Going elsewhere for a run
With its host like an Olympian
As if chasing the sun.
