Little seeds I planted once 

Grew into a tree 

An apple tree 

Who gave me many things 

It gave me shade in the summer, 

Apples to eat, 

It gave me branches to play with, 

And it gave me a place to relax. 

O’ Tree standing so tall I am very fond of you 

From the day I planted your seeds 

I knew our friendship was true

Posted by C.R. Vard 2008-02-11 15:56:41 .... a sweet little poem...my only problem was word choice. 'large apple tree' doesn't convey any of your emotions about the tree, and in such a short poem, one word can make a big difference + Report this comment

Posted by Egoist 2008-05-10 11:19:56 .... What a fresh and relaxing poem. It's sweet and simple. Nothing too deep, just gratitude to the apple tree. I'm hungry for some apples. + Report this comment
