PLANTING TREES
God gave earth its incredible trees
For timber, food, fresh air and nesting.
Man and fire have destroyed too many
And their abundance is not self lasting.
Thank heaven for all who replant trees
Insuring forests for our future and more.
We need trees for their potential harvest
Planted everywhere more then before.
Together we can make a difference
In the taste of earth’s air and its beauty.
How we leave this planet for our children
Is not just our purpose but our duty.
Go to the nursery or drive to the woods
And dig yourself a beautiful tree.
Take it home and help it grow tall
For all to inhale, consume and see.
How hideous would our world grow to be
Without the shade of a glorious tree?
To make sure they never vanish from sight
Is up to nature, mankind and Thee.
