The Giving Tree

Once there was a tree...
and she loved a little boy.
And every day the boy would come
and he would gather her leaves
and make them into crowns
and play king of the forest.
He would climb up her trunk
and swing from her branches
and eat apples.
And the would play
hide-and-go-seek.
And when he was tired,
he would sleep in her shade.
And the boy loved the tree
very much.
And the tree was happy.
