Beech Tree, Beech Tree

This is poem #2 in my Journey To The Magical Realm collection. This lovely limerick was inspired by my favorite tree growing up. It held me when I had to hide from someone, protected me from the rain/

Beech Tree, Beech Tree give me a hug

Make me feel warm all nice and snug

Your branches are long,

You can do no wrong

Unless you are covered in bugs

 

Beech Tree, Beech Tree please block out the sun

It's time for a nap, I've had much fun

Throw your branches up high

All the way to the sky

Before the windstorm has begun

 

Beech Tree, Beech Tree protect me from trolls

Keep them from tickling and nibbling my toes

As mute as a swan

I'll slowly climb on

Don't worry I will not impose

 

Beech Tree, Beech Tree you are my best friend

I'm sad that this day has to come to an end

But fear you should not

'Cuz when it gets hot

I'll come back and see you again!
