A long time ago, there was a huge tree


It loved a little boy very much, the boy loved to come and play around it everyday.


He climbed to the treetop.


Ate the apples.


Take a nap under the shadow.


He loved the tree, the tree was so happy!


Time went by….


One day, the boy came back to the tree


The tree said “come play wit me.”


“I am no longer a kid, I do not play around tree anymore” “I want toys. I need money to buy them.” Said the boy.


“Sorry, but I do not have money…but you can pick all my apples and sell them. So, you will have money.” the tree said.


The boy was so excited. He grabbed all the apples on the tree and left happily. The tree was happy.


The boy never came back after picked the apples. The tree was sad.


One day, the boy who now turned into a man returned and the tree was excited. “Come and play with me” the tree said.


I do not have time to play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me?” asked the man.


“Sorry, but I do not have any house. But you can chop off my branches to built your house.” Replied the tree.


So the man cut all the branches of the tree and left happily.


The tree was glad to see him happy but the man never came back since then. The tree was again lonely and sad.


One hot summer day, the man returned and the tree was delighted.” Come and play with me!” the tree said.


“I am getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat?” said the man.


“Use my trunk to build your boat. “The tree said, “you can sail far away and be happy.”


So the man cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time.


Finally, the man returned after many years. “Sorry my boy, but I do not have anything for you anymore. No more apples for you…” the trees said. “No problem, I do not have any teeth to bit” the man replied….


No more trunk for you to climb on” “I am too old for that now” the man said.


“I really cannot give you anything…the only thing left is my dying roots” the tree said with tears.


“I do not need much now just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years” the man replied.


“Good! Old tree roots are the best place to lean on and rest, come sit down with me and rest.”


The man sat down and the tree was glad and smiles with tears…
