Three small children 
Bring home
Three small pines.

The trees were planted in a line.
Side by side, the children grew.
Side by side, grew the trees.

That first earth day,
It has created a beautiful background. 
For so many
a wonderful thing.

Family gatherings,
Children playing,
Music in the yard.
A beautiful couple
saying, 'I do'.

From a seed,
into a sapling.
From a sapling,
into a tree.
From a tree,
into a stump.
From a stump,
into earth.
To  provide nourishment, 
for the next tiny seed.
