Just for a little fun... ! I came upon a wishing tree Whilst walking out one day It spoke to me as i passed by It had a lot to say "Dear boy" says tree with deepest tone "Your brow looks like my bark! Such frown you wear upon your face What thoughts think you so dark?" Startled by a tree that talks I stopped dead in my tracks "How does a tree so talk to me?" I needed all the facts. "As i declare don't think me rude That i must stop and stare, For tree's that speak confuse me so, In fact it's awfully rare !" The tree just laughed as well he might For i was stood aghast, He chortled "I'm the first you'll see And certainly the last !" "Well" says I "if truth be told My brow is very furrowed, For life has taken me to task My luck has all been borrowed" "Well here's the thing" said wishing tree, "Come hither and be jolly, For I grant wishes one,two,three Though lose them at your folly" So wishes 3 i made for me My life changed in a second So take advice and be so nice To wishing tree when beckoned !. |

I love this. Reminds me of the best parts of childhood. Don't know why. |

Maybe a wishing tree whispered it in your ear... |
