I feel sick any time of day. Out in the wilderness He's after the food
Any shape, or form, or way. A fire would feel good.
I can have a broken arm, leg, or head, And so you strike a match
And I can simply because that's what I said. Upon the pile of wood.

I can run a temperature of 104, Now you see a shimmering

I can do this any night or day,
And I can simply because that's what I say. Spread itself around,
Passing over all the sticks

But now the dance must start

At the fair

PINE TREES We Are Family!

Oh, the family of pine trees
How grand you are,
In the light of the sun.
Or a shining star.

On gray days or clear days
You still stand proud and tall.
All the way from winter,
And back to fall.

Your green and full
Graceful boughs
For birds and animals
Shelter allows.
