There was a tree
As tall as it could be.
It was surrounded by plains and flowers it knew for centuries
It was in this place by the first year
Then the second year came
Nothing happened
Then the third year came
Nothing happened
Then the fourth year came
There was a man with a scruffy beard and walked up to the tree
He sniffed the flowers the tree always knew
Then he said, " This looks like the perfect spot!"
He left
Then the fifth year came
Nothing happened
Then the sixth year came
Monster machines came roaring towards the tree.
They crushed the flowers the tree once knew
They hid the plain the tree once lived
But they left the tree
Then the seventh year came
The giant monsters made colossal pillars with glass
They hid the land the tree had lived for centuries
but they did not harm the tree
Then the eighth year came
All the tree knew was gone
There were no more plains or flowers
It was all cement
Then the ninth year came
The tree was ignored
Then the tenth year came
Nothing happened
Then the eleventh year came
Nothing happened
Then the twelfth year came
A man with no scruffy beard at all looked at the tree
and admired it......
