Little Tree

Little Tree, little tree
Well this is your new home
I hope you like it; I like you very much

Dear Little Tree,
Grow fast and strong
out on the lawn, nothing can go wrong
I'll give you everything you need

You must be thirsty

Dear Little Tree,
we'll have so much "sun"
Staked against the wind
I will be your friend
For you are everything to me

Someday you'll be big and tall
and you won't feel so very small
And no, no one knows how high you'll climb
It will come in time
You'll get your season

Dear Little Tree,
You're just like me
Even if the breeze strips away our leaves
We'll have each other
