The Letter to the Great Oak Tree

January 27, 2018

Why do you stand there

throughout the wear and tear?

You watch for all time

committing a victimless crime.

You are bound by root

for this is the forbidden fruit?

Chained by the underworld

would you wish to see the world?

Come with me

you Great Oak Tree

Let us see

the great world of thee
