"Come Read A Book"

Come and sit down by my tree,
Come and read a book with me.

We'll listen quietly till the story is complete,
Then write the title and author upon a leaf.

On a tree limb the leaf will be placed,
With every book read, every leaf will take space.

Soon our tree will be full of leaves!
Every branch will hang, every branch will have bended.

For this is a tree that carries the leaves,
Of all of the books I love to read.
