An excellent gift for the holidays or any time of year!
A pine tree is a cone.
Clinging and swinging and hanging up high,
Sealed like a secret and ready to fly.
The wind starts to blow,
Then look out below!
A pine tree begins with a cone.
A pine tree is a sapling.
Stretching and reaching for sunlight and rain,
Watching the seasons pass once, twice, again.
Roots digging down,
Branches forming a crown,
A pine tree turns into a sapling.
