Trees

Longest lived of living things, Some trees last two thousand years. These natural resources Give us oxygen. Trees absorb nasty carbon, Thus saving us from ourselves And belching automobiles. We must save our trees. Trees are indispensable. Buffer from wind, shade from sun, And I have but just begun To name their uses. By: Joyce Johnson for: "Trees Everywhere" contest Rec'd a 5th

Everything you have stated here is true. Those photosynthetic plants can live without us, but we cannot live without them.
