Trees Should Be Leisured Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Trees should be leisured.
And given our priority.
Treated as if royality.
Without them no one breathes.

Trees should be leisured.
And stroked and pampered as if pets.
Instead of showing them neglect...
With a chopping down they get.

Trees should be leisured.
Like those we say we love.
Like favorite foods we eat to please.
Or things to ask from God above.

Trees should be leisured.
And given our priority.
Treated as if royality.
Without them no one breathes.

All trees should leisure.
Not be chopped and sold as huts!
To be then neglected or resold,
Or abandoned to give up!

Trees should be leisured.
And stroked and pampered as if pets.
Instead of showing them neglect...
With a chopping down they get.

All trees should leisure.
Since without them no one breathes.
All trees should leisure.
Since without them no one breathes.
And if from us trees should leave...
We would not here be needed.
