I see you little tree, my friend
and all your splendid leaves.
And you can see me too i think
between your emerald eaves.
How is it that you fair, my dear
amidst the tow’ring pines,
Without the slightest company
apart from that of mine?
amidst the tow'ring pines, Without the slightest company apart from that of mine?has an incredibly powerful effect. Almost like that used of Dorothea Mackellar in 'My Country', I just think that use of rhyme is amazing. Anyway, I love it completely, the message behind the words and the beautiful flowing lines, I just love. Well done to you, sir.
