Jim The Tree Part One

Children's Poem

Jim was a tree,and a little boy too

He once was small,but he grew and grew

His friend was Farmer John ,who he knew

His eyes were gentle,kind and blue

They lived on a farm that was big

And on the land they would dig

And plant colorful healthy crops

and carefully water all the tops

And inside the farmhouse they would all stay

While in the barn there was only hay

Because the animals all lived in the house too

In the large bedrooms that were warm and brand new

And they'd quilt and they'd cook and study and pray

And try to make the most of every day

And then one day it was time for the fair

And about going there they did really care

And brought with them all the things they had grown

By following the directions that they had been shown

So on this trip they would go

Careful not to forget their hoe

They all had a time that was great

And never were tardy or ever late

And cheerfuly entered contests all

Because their crops had grown so big and tall

And they won quite a few of them that was true

And took home several ribbons shiny and blue
