Together We Lay


Big tree standing tall

As little ones grow around

We've lived long my friend

 

As I watched you grow

From just a seed to a tree

Shading when needed

 

Aiding in your strength

As I slowly lost my own

We lie together

 

You shall shade me still

As those visit me by day

This ground we now share
