Beyond those leafless trees stands lifeless
The season's call for autumn greatness
The climate curse, a weather change
Wintertime is coming, the coolness blows its range.
The autumn leaves are on the ground, lamenting trees stand still
Stripped of its beauty, but the look has its kill
It is never goodbye for the next season
They will endure the snow or any blizzard that comes on.
Though leaves are gone, still playing with the wind
The echo sounds like music, and the birds can find
It's so amazing to see flocks of birds staying on trees
Hear them tweeting like merry melodies.
Tree of Life, we see them transform every year
Perineal life span, the magic we adhere
God gives the tree its importance to mankind
Love the tree, cherish ecology, and we won't be left behind.
