Under the Oak Tree

Under the Oak Tree

You can find me
Beneath the oak tree
Its shade provides
For me, a place to hide

A place to remain cool
While looking out at the school
Of sunlight goldfish swimming
Bright hope's future shining

From under the oak tree
I believe
Looking up into its full branches
With the leaves, exchanging glances

Trading secrets, we smile green and white
Fearing, for not a moment, the coming night
The darkness is not our enemy
It provides a balancing serenity

This oak and I
We both grow high
Bathed in sunlight
Wrapped in moonlight

You can find me
Under the oak tree
