TIMBER!
An old tree is falling
It’s been suffering rot
For quite some time
People have been saying it should be cut
A virus came instead
So now it’s falling
The dark it caused is opening
Allowing in light
To the young ones
Fallen,
New saplings can grow
In directions different to the old
Finding the sky for themselves
A new way
