There used to be trees

There used to be trees,
now there’s a housing estate,
Squished together no nature,
Is this our fate?
There used to be branches,
and leaves of green,
But now there are no branches or leaves
to be seen.
The trees were beautiful so pretty and tall,
Now there’s just houses, no trees at all.
So I sit outside in the cool summer breeze,
Thinking “Before there were houses, there used to be trees.
