A single Elm tree
In the meadows
Calling the black
Capped Chickadees
Oh! You pretty
Little songbirds
Look at me
I am still here
All by myself
I have managed to escape
The axe and survived
I can't migrate
Like you guys
From one place to another
How about building
A nest on me
And settle down
You can be
My great companions
I don't want to be
Alone any more
I host insects
And spiders for you
My seeds and buds
Can be your delicious
Breakfast, lunch
And dinner
By the way
You can nourish me
With your droppings
And amuse me
With your breathtaking melodies
I also need your caress
I am madly
In love with you
Please don't reject
My humble request
