SPRING OAK TREE - (Rhyming verse)
Now that springtime has returned, my oak tree has recovered from her winter nudity,
Her branches have given birth to newborn leaves, and she is regaining her verdancy.
The leaves will enlarge and become more luxuriant, as well as a deeper shade of green,
Soon I will be able to sit under her majestic branches, ponder and daydream.
My family and I will picnic, and seek her shady protection from the sun,
In the long days of summer heat, languid from the temperature, exhausted by the fun!
I am living for today, always remembering yesterday, and looking forward to tomorrow!
