Green Flag blow

a lonely tree

You are stuck but do not fret

I love your shadows silhouette 

The way it dances with the sun

throughout the day you too are one.

But you shall never have your chance. 

to bend and twist or glide and dance.

You can only observe your shadows moves

and watch in spite as it improves.

But without you there, your shadow aint s**t.

it would have nothing, no you, to reflect it.

Green is your flag, its colour showing proud.

but you are not evergreen, you are not allowed.

As time goes on your shadow grows thinner ever more

your dancing attire, spew all across the floor. 

but it is not the end of your vibrant career. 

you lose your leaves just once a year.
