I walked alone
to a shady tree
On it i sat
Just to laugh in glee.
And on the ground
I saw a stone
With a tiny crack
All on its own.
Before i knew
The branch began to break
I forgot to mention
I was above a lake.
I called for help,
I tried to escape,
But deep down inside
I knew my fate.
The tree branch broke,
I began to fall,
But the branch did not
splash into the lake at all!
I swung to land
On the skewered branch,
Then the whole damn tree
Fell before my hands.
I fell onto
That tiny stone
Just sitting there
All on it's own
And with a scream
And a little crack
Irealised the stone
Had broken my back
