CHAPTER 4: MANY OTHER FRIENDS, AND MY BEST FRIEND--ME |
"As time moved along, I grew up very tall,
Throughout all the seasons, from Winter to Fall.
My branches grew big, reaching way, way up high;
And sometimes I felt I was touching the sky."
"I know I'm the only grown tree on my street,
With no other trees standing close-by to meet.
No matter, for me, I've got friends day and night.
When sunshine is strong and the moon beams are bright."
"And even if storm clouds appear in the sky,
And raindrops fall down on the bees buzzing by.
I never feel lonely; Perhaps you know why....
I've got many friends, most of all,....
I HAVE 'I'."
