It seems to show solidity

But I worry ‘ bout this tree

It is so tall in wind doth sway

It may just collapse on our driveway

Crunch a car smash walls and roof

I can offer you this proof

That years ago a tree that tall

From next door collapsed on roof and wall.

That time they said it was secure

Laughed at me when I did demure

Within two weeks it split asunder

Creamed our house with shake and thunder

Filled our yard and clothesline smashed

Took days and days to clear and clean

So I ask that you cut it down

Before it tumbles on its own.
