'On sweet summer days we slept on the grass in your shade.
In the spring rain we ran to be under the umbrella of your leaves.
As we lay in bed at night we heard the unseen wind in the
Darkness rustle through you just before we passed into sleep
Up high in your branches all those birds built their home
As endless squirrels endlessly clambered all over you.
But you never said 'No' to anyone
You just gave and gave and gave.
The Mother of our Garden'
