Description

What if all the trees were oaks

How plain the world would seem,

No maple syrup, banana splits

And how would orange juice be?



Wouldn't it be a boring place

If all the people were the same;

Just one color just one language,

Just one family name!



-But-



If the forest were the world

And all the people were the trees;

Palm and pine, bamboo and willow,

Live and grow in harmony.



Aren't you glad, my good friend

Different though we be,

We are here to help each other.

I learn from you, and you, from me.
