Do Trees Always Dance?

Move

Said the wind

No!

Calls out the tree

I'll make you

-Wind

Go Ahead

- Tree

There's a howl and hoot

A shake and a quake

And yet

Tall stands the tree

Leaves dance up and down

Branches slightly frown

Yet tall stands the tree

I shake and I quake

I grow and I change

But you will not move me

My feet love this Earth

They dig and they search

Working

Until I set roots

My roots are my all

From Summer to Fall

In Winter we rest

So Spring is our best

As you see Dear Wind

Despite you being unconfined

You cannot quicken my death

Mighty I'll be

Until my last breath
