| I Am Your----- | Giving Tree | |
| Giving tree | Giving. | |
| Giving. | Giving tree | |
| Pleased, you will | Pleased, you will | |
| Grow me back | Grow me back | |
| Someday soon. | Someday soon. | |
| You would fall to earth’s rock, | You were falling to earth, | |
| Crumbling and crackling | Plunging and pancaking | |
| Your bones, but | Your limbs, but | |
| My limbs stretched | My leaves soaked | |
| Under your weight, | Up all your weight, | |
| My boughs buoyed you. | My limbs lassoed you. | |
| My hope holds you – | My faith floats you – | |
| Your safety net. | Your parachute. | |
| Eat of my fruit, and | Giving Tree | |
| Swing from my branch; cut | Giving. | |
| Boards for your home; take | Giving tree | |
| Fuel for your heat; build a | Please, will you | |
| Boat for your leave; use my | Grow me back | |
| Stump for your seat – | Someday soon? | |
| That’s me… |
