*scramble, scramble, scramble, scratch, climb, ow!!!, scramble, scramble, bump, boing!!!'oh hello!
i am another great fan of trees and as i counldn't see anybody from the ground i decided to just come up and see what is going on.
...i brought some chocolate cake with me from the cafe if anybody wants some- i think it is a slightly different flavour from the chocolate cake you get from the tree- slightly less nutty

i love the tree
the tree loves me
the tree loves you
all the tree does
is grow
leaves
branches
love.
it breathes for us all
it swallows the sun
and spits it out
as cake.
This is the perfect tree
the tree you want it to be
For climbing, sitting, contemplating,
Its peaceful up here.
You can see the whole world.
And the world is good.
Dappled sunlight
Sweet fresh leaves.
Welcome to the tree!
*comes over all shy*

HAVE you ever heard of the Sugar-Plum Tree?
'Tis a marvel of great renown!
It blooms on the shore of the Lollipop sea,
In the garden of Shut-Eye Town;
The fruit that it bears is so wondrously sweet
(As those who have tasted it say)
That good little children have only to eat
Of that fruit to be happy next day.
When you've got to the tree, you would have a hard time
To capture the fruit which I sing;
The tree is so tall that no person could climb
To the boughs where the sugar-plums swing!
But up in that tree sits a chocolate cat,
And a gingerbread dog prowls below-
And this is the way you contrive to get at
Those sugar-plums tempting you so:
You say but the word to that gingerbread dog
And he barks with such terrible zest
That the chocolate cat is at once all agog,
As her swelling proportions attest.
And the chocolate cat goes cavorting around
From this leafy limb unto that
And the sugar-plums tumble, (of course, to the ground)-
Hurrah for that chocolate cat!
There are marshmallows, gumdrops, and peppermint canes,
With stripings of scarlet or gold,
And you carry away of the treasure that rains
As much as your apron can hold!
So come, little child, cuddle closer to me
In your dainty white nightcap and gown,
And I'll rock you away to that Sugar-Plum Tree
In the garden of Shut-Eye Town.
