My Tree

A calming place,

Where the wind blows, swirling by and the birds chirp.

When the water splashes, it is a satisfying trickling sound.

I climb to the very top of my red oak tree.

I can see everything.

Everything looks so small and tiny.

When the leaves drop,

They float down to the rocks below.

I hear the hissing snakes.

They Slither into the bed of leaves.

I feel like I am on the top of the world.

The birds flying around, joyfully circling.

I smell the nice blossoms -

They smell like honey,

Yellow miniature suns everywhere.

I climb back down

I can hear the satisfying sound of leaves under my feet

Crunch! Crunch!

I am pleased and overjoyed.

I am calm here.
