If I Were A Tree
If I were a tree,
I’d be a scrawny little thing,
And ugly,
And scarred,
And unliked.
If I were a tree,
I'd be overlooked,
And unwanted,
And bare,
And quite lame.
But if I were a tree,
I'd be left alone,
And there I’d grow,
Until I was beautiful,
And strong,
And tall,
And liked and loved by all.
