A poem By Saltaire Trees
What would Sir Titus really think,
About the actions of the few,
Who chopped our lovely grand old trees,
And put busy roads in view?
We loved those trees that shaded us,
And blossomed in the spring,
Where kids collected conkers,
They did mean everything.
It is all about the symmetry,
It’s all about design,
It’s a council “spending money quick!”
Who say “we’re running out of time!”
But now we are
down-hearted,
Our air not quite so clean,
Yes, We can see the buildings now,
But not tree-framed like they’ve been…
We (like The Lorax) say, Unless.
As Unless is all we’ve got
Stand up, turn up, sign up
And please change this awful lot.
