MR PLUM TREE

Imagine if you will a plum tree Luscious and draping with fruit Offering free food, all you can eat No slot for your hard earned loot. Just nature looking out for her colleagues A branch upon which birds can perch To rest their weary legs and wings As they take a break from their daily search. A post upon which we can lean The plum tree supports us with pride Her roots are deep and sturdy She offers shelter for many to hide. Free food throughout her season A home for squirrels to rest A safe shelter for crows to roost That's why the plum trees the best. Now imagine if you will a human How strong can a human be? Are they kind and supportive? Like our friend the loyal plum tree... Would we offer free food to a stranger Somewhere they can rest their head? Many human beings are on the streets It won't be long before they're dead. Would we allow people to live together? As the Plum tree does with squirrel and crow? Would we want paid for our kindness? That answer you already know. I wished I was like that plum tree I'd give every hungry mouth my fruits Somewhere to rest their weary heads Somewhere to hang their old boots. I wished I was strong like that plum tree Can you imagine how good she must feel? Every morning as the sun kisses her leaves The plum tree, she's got the real deal.
