This picture of my favorite tree.
Has been a treasure to me.
The first year I watched it grow.
All thorough the winter and snow.
Then in the spring,with leaves of green.
I saw his reflection in the little spring.
I marveled at how it grew.
Then when i saw the reflection I wondered.
It is growing up or down.
Is it half in or out.
Now you see why it is my favorite tree.
The beauty, the pleasure, and fun it brings.

The innocence in this poem is good and it makes the reader want to almkst have a chat with you about the tree
The rhyme was subtle yet makes the childrens' theme more profound.
The ending was perfect and ended off the poem well. Good luck in the contest!!
