A lonely tree

A lonely tree?

No, not me

For far and wide I can see

The spring blossoming almond tree

Bright yellow Serin serenading the Sun

My day has begun

Orange, chestnut and olive green

Ibex as yet unseen

Acequias the water guides

Bringing elixer to my mountainsides

Goats with their guides

Loyal dogs by their sides

This land steeped in history

The Moors, the dictators, the setting free

The hoot of the eagle owl closes the day

And the sun begins its hide away

Here I am the happiest tree

Surrounded by nature and history
