Earth Earth into the air and
light each fall it will shed its leaves
and each spring new ones will
grow 1775 this is 1800 now the gr boy
grew up and moved away Farmers now lived
here they cleared the hillsides where
Forest once stood the wood was used for
building and to burn in
fireplaces but the oak tree was left
standing the oak tree this is

wide and grew upward and
outward sometimes snow was very heavy
and a branch would break
off brch
this is
1850 as the oak tree grew everyone and
everything was on the Move children grew
some stayed to work on the farms and
others left to work in
factories large Eng engines rumbled
along steel
rails birds perched in the oak tree to
rest from long migrations
some stayed and made new homes and
others flew on more people arrived and
built new homes and
buildings
1875 some years little rain fell Hills
and Fields were dry where trees had once
stood and shaded the ground from the
sun’s
Rays the oak trees Roots reached far
underground for water as its leaves
wited Farmers conserved what little they
had for 30 Liv thirsty livestock until
the rain fell
again electricity came through wires
that were strung over Hills and through
vales valys it powered Street lamps and
homes the land twinkled with lights as
stars faded in the night

1925 the oak tree grew slowly and
steadily while all around its life bed
by people rode in cars to go to work and
visit friends to go shopping or just out
for a

contrs contrails and radio waves and
sound waves of beeping cars barking dogs

motorboats whistling
trains and
music the oak tree

has shed its leaves and grown new ones
every year
animals birds and insects have made
homes in its folds and holes and
branches 200 years
old the oak tree with its strong roots
trunk and limbs has survived many storms
over its
lifetime now a fog rows in and a big
storm is on the way
this is year
2000 the storm is powerful and the oak
tree is split in two it does not survive
the
