Meaningless Tree

• Artist: October Gray
• Description: I wrote this poem years and years ago, and finally a librarian friend of mine encouraged me to submit it to get published in a book. It's been published and copywritted, so if you feel like using some of it, please ask me first. Thank you, and enjoy! ^__^

There sighed once
A sad little tree
Who often would cry
In his own misery

He thought to himself
That he had not a purpose
And feeling quite lonely
Declared himself worthless

'Till one summer day
When along on a journey
A young, strapping boy
Had found it too sunny

Beneath a still limb
He found sound reprieve
And what else should happen
But his shade should leave

For the sad, solemn tree
Became overwhelmed with joy
And dancing about
Lost his purpose to the boy

Thank you. I suppose I can be the same about rhyming, but it shows effort in making a flowing poem I think.
