Becomes a tree that’s strong and sound.

And soon its life has just begun.  

It sends its roots so deep and tight,

To hold it firm both day and night.

The leaves go green, the branches spread,

The birds make nests above my head.

From tiny seed to giant tree,

What wondrous thing a seed can be!
