I had a tree,
in my backyard
It began as a tiny seed.
I watched it grow
into a small bush
then into a good sized tree.
But it kept on growing.
It became a big tree.
I was in the shadows
The branches were now over the fence
into other yards.
It was the biggest tree
in my yard
It was the biggest thing
in my yard.
I cut it down.
Now I wished I hadn't.
(I miss the big old tree.)
