Up a Tree

by charlene7190

Sitting in a tree
as high as I could climb,
picking green apples
spending all my time.

Me and myself
sitting in a tree
eating sour apples
because they're free

All by myself
at five years old.
"don't climb that tree,"
so I was told.

Oh, I gotta go!
and I can't climb down
I'm in trouble now.
Tonsils start to drown.

Can someone help?
Oops, it's too late.
Just pee'd my pants
but I couldn't wait.

Well who really knew
how happy I'd be,
just me and my apples
in that wet old tree.
