I want to be a tree!

I want to be a tree

 I want to feel the wind in my branches

reach out to the soil below me and feed on it

I want to become still and observe everything around me

I want to share secret moments with people

I want to watch people grow up

have kids

grow old

I want to fall asleep with every fall and winter

and I want to grow strong in spring in summer

I want to be a swing, a thing to climb on, a thing to have fun on

I want to watch many seasons pass and watch the world around me mature

I want to be a tree
