If All The Trees Were Oaks (Poem) by Unknown Author

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. -Author Unknown
