I?d be a Mighty Oak
by Sharron Tyrrell → (All Poetry by Sharron Tyrrell)

Here I stand a towering oak
powerful and strong.

In my arms rest many birds
singing soulful songs.

In the gentle breeze my limbs they sway
and rattle my fine leaves.

Beneath my shade lies a granite stone
near which a family greaves.

When I need somehow to scratch an itch
I?ll call on the fine woodpecker.

Around my feet in the dawn of day
play tiny mouse defenders.

In winter time when I shed my leaves
I have branches cold and bare.

On a stormy day in a cape of white
I?d be warm without a care.

So I?ll stand right here in this meadow green
and grow bigger every day.

As years go by witness many sights
as I stand right here and sway.





I too did an assignment what I would be if I were a tree !!!
