Poet's Tree


Old Friends

A few old friends came by today.
The Rain came down but didn't stay.
Thw Wind came, too, but went away.
They're the friends that came today.

The Snow dropped by for just the day.
"I'm coming back," I heard him say.
By evening's fall he'd gone away.
The Snow became my friend that day.

I had a visit from the Sun,
but soon he said, "I have to run."
A Cloud came then and hid the Sun.
My friends, the Wind, the Rain, the Sun.

The Moon surprised me in the night.
A welcome sight so big and bright.
I think he came to spread some light.
The Moon became my friend that night.

A Star came by to stay the night.
A pretty lady dressed in white.
She stayed until the morning light.
The Star became my friend last night.
