Oak Tree

I saw a pretty bird inside the woods 
It circled ‘round a very tall oak tree 
Then flew away towards my neighborhood 
I wonder why it fled so suddenly 
 
I went and walked towards the lofty oak 
I watched its leaves twirl in the breezy air 
I touched the wood and suddenly it spoke 
“Why are you watching me with such a stare?” 
 
I jumped back and tripped over a rock 
I’ve never seen a talking tree before 
I stood there frozen with a look of shock 
And listened as the oak spoke even more 
 
Now I go to the forest every day 
Just to hear what the oak tree has to say
