POEM
In the dark, dark earth
Was a small, small seed.
And the sun came up
And the rain came down
From the small, small seed
Burst a white, white root.
And the sun came up
And the root pushed down.
From the small, small seed
Crept a brave, brave shoot.
And the shoot grew up
And the rain came down
From the damp, damp soil
Crept the brave, brave shoot.
And the shoot grew green
And the sun shone down.
From the green, green shoot
Grew a tall, tall tree.
And the sun came up
And the rain came down.
On the tall, tall tree
Grew A PLUM for me!
And the sun came up
And the sun shone down.
