I saw branches one by one,
Yet roots hang down among.
I see a spider bright, deadly and small,
The tree I swing from the spider crawls.
I feel as if I was losing grip,
As if I was about to slip.
I swing from vine to vine,
Feeling like Tarzan yet I hear my brother whine.
I hear people saying “ahhhh”,
And I hear my brother saying “ta” for a banana .
I hear roots breaking,
Then I see people having fun and making.
Talof Hunter,
