He was still happy
The tree stood as a soldier in the forest,
He was surrounded by his people,
He was happy.
One day man came to his forest,
They killed his brothers and sisters,
Left him all alone,
But he was still happy.
A new kind of people surrounded him,
Much different then himself,
They swung from his century old branches,
They plucked him clean of his apples,
And yet he did everything he could to please them.
On a summers morning,
He let a child fall from his branches,
It wasn’t his fault,
He could do nothing.
The child’s parents swore he was a danger,
And a man with a saw came,
He took the life from that old tree,
But the tree was still happy,
Right up until the moment,
That they threw him in the flames.
