Arboristicism
Who wants to see my poor tree
A tree tease long in tooth?
Who has the time
To think in rhyme
Before we all
Do sink in rime
To be so wrong in truth?
Who wants to see my poor tree?
To climb and sing
On tyred swing?
To be so long in youth?
To dance to prance
To find romance?
Who wants to see my poor tree
Or feel the bark forsooth?
Or trip among the roots?
May hap leave and
Take a bough?
Or do y' not know how?
Who wants t' see my poor tree?
