The Nosiest Tree
The strangest thing I ever did see,
Was the nosiesttree in living history.
She tapped on my shoulder and begged to come in.
Poking and prodding,
Each leaf in a place.
She proceeded to question everything to my face.
"Haven't I seen you before?"
"Are you new around here?"
"What's your name anyway?"
Then I told her, "she was the strangest thing I ever did see".
She got rather miffed and started to sniff.
"I used to know the little girl who lived here,
She wouldn't let me in,
Said I talked to much and put my leaves where they didn't belong."
I smiled and nodded.
She was the strangest nosiest tree in living history.
She stuck out her tongue when I was done,
And left!
