LITTLE ACORN
Tiny acorn lay upon the ground,
fall to earth with nary a sound.
Though you seem so very small,
someday to be a oak tree tall.
Yes mighty you will be someday,
branches in the wind will sway.
Squirrels scurry and forage neath,
crimson and gold colored wreath.
Soon the crispness comes in air,
winter winds will soon be here.
Tall oaks catch falling snows,
beneath the tiny acorns sows.
Leaves return in springtime rain,
mighty tall oak reigns again.
On forrest's floor down below,
tiny acorns begin to grow.

This is cute, The rhyme is sweet and flavors the quatrain. Something taken without much thought developed into special feelings for the oak tree. The flow is moves slowly to gather in the spice of the seasons. Good luck with the contest.
