Feel the strength within the earth
Feel the mighty power within.
Watch as it rises towards the air
The Woodland giants for the win.
The mighty Oaks who tower high
The epitome of boundless strength.
Holding their own against any gale
They seldom fall, seldom fail.
They do not bend They do not bow
Standing firm, tall and proud.
Then there’s the Beech, tall and wide
Their towering height above the Oak
Their mighty crowns the sunlight chokes
Hang the others with green leafy ropes
A Willow tree do I now see
Bending swaying with the Breeze
Whichever way it goes if you please
It takes its time, a life of ease.
All these trees and many more
Within the wild places they adore.
They battle for space they battle for life
They seek ever the golden sunlight.
They coexist to a degree
For survival is all they seek.
Some seem strong. Others weak
Yet they are all alive
Living at their peak
