Literature Text

Carve all your thoughts in me
And let me be your witness
“E. B. + C.D 4ever”
Let me be your sympathetic ear
“All the world’s worth
Such a miniscule measure”
Let me be a companion in those quiet moments
Where everything seems to slow
When you are sad a lonely
Let my shade me a comforting shelter
When you are tired and worn
Let my stump be a place to find rest
When you are as excited and lively as I am
I hope you can stand on my branches
And feel strong

And when my time has come to an end
Let me be cut down
And made into a safe haven
A home, a fortress, a place of dwelling
And I can be a comfort
Once more
