TREES-THE SAMARITANS

Far away in the woods,

Lives a Good Samaritan,

Serving one and all,

Like it always should.


Like a Green Colossus it stands,

Yet bending over with all its humility,

It lends all fuel for our demands.

Like a towering building it soars,

High above house and towers,

And like a nature doctor it cures,

The air from dust, pollution and acid showers.

Like a mother it holds,

Its branches creeping out,

And like a friend it lends

Shade and shelter to all without doubt.






So let us all take a vow,

To serve these green soldiers starting now,

As tomorrow may be too late,

We may lose a caretaker and a cruel world that would make.
