Poem

The Old Oak Tree

My father was like an old Oak tree, with grain
                        strong enough to bend the strongest nail . and 
                        I was a sprout that grew beside his trunk. His
                        branches sheltered me fro the World's evil flame
                        and when I matured and was transplanted to
                        grow on my own and free, I became a plank 
                        from the old Oak tree.
