One tree, two tree, red tree, blue tree

6,695 views

On all the other websites
despite the countless trees
they made me feel alone
and asked for many fees

They offered lots of hints
but never gave a clue
that all of us are cousins
including me and you

They kept me isolated
and said I was unique
for only fifty dollars
I could have a peek...

I knew that it was wrong
and not a place for me
I didn't know what else to do
'till I found WikiTree

WikiTree is different
they don't charge any fee
giving everything we need
and all of it is free

The Honor Code is special
in guiding how we act
in bringing us together
as signers of the pact

Nobody is nicer
than here at WikiTree
always sharing positives
and generosity

I learned we're all related
we share the same big tree
we truly find our family
in this community :)

Guess I'm on the slow boat but this is beautiful, Keith. And to share it with Wikitree members is exactly what Wikitree is all about! Thank you!

And like a wildfire, starting from the American northeast, the poetic bug is now being evidenced from the American Pacific coast......!
