The Dancing Tree

Among the pines and oaks
a space is filled
by a tree with leaves
that just cannot be
still
it shakes and it shimmers
so eagerly
it is just a delight
to watch this tree
the leaves turn from silver
to a light minty green
it's just a mean, green
dancing machine
and if there is music
the leaves so do flutter
leaving you with a heart
turned to butter
I love this tree, pretty sure
it knows it
it dances with love and  
knows how to show it
so dance, my tree
with all your heart
here's hoping you and I
will never part.....
