The Tunnel In The Tree
The tunnel in the tree
There by the pond stands a tall Oak Tree
It must be the oldest in the town
Birds come to rest on it peacefully as you hear their chirping sounds
It’s branches reach out like a giants arms
You can even see faces in its bark
When the wind gently blows it gives way to light
As the day draws in the dark
At night the secret opening at the bottom of the tree
Allows tiny little creatures to come on in for tea
They climb a tunnel right up to the top
And they meet and talk with friends
These clever little insects have fun until nights end
So from now on when you go to bed and you wonder of the things you saw
Just Remember the special old oak tree that invites it’s friends to keep warm indoors
