"Sebatang pohon ek dan rumpun pohon mawar tumbuh, Muda dan hijau bersama, Membicarakan pembicaraan tentang hal-hal yang tumbuh - Angin, air, dan cuaca. Dan sementara rumpun pohon mawar mekar dengan manis Pohon ek tumbuh begitu tinggi sehingga sekarang berbicara tentang hal-hal baru - Elang, puncak gunung dan langit. "Kurasa kamu pikir kamu cukup hebat," mawar itu terdengar menangis, menjerit sekeras mungkin ke puncak pohon di langit. "Dan sekarang kamu tidak punya waktu untuk bicara bunga, Sekarang kamu sudah tumbuh begitu tinggi." "Aku belum tumbuh besar," kata pohon itu, "Hanya saja kau tetap kecil."

--- Shel Silverstein

Versi Bahasa Inggris

An oak tree and a rosebush grew, Young and green together, Talking the talk of growing things- Wind and water and weather. And while the rosebush sweetly bloomed The oak tree grew so high That now it spoke of newer things- Eagles, mountain peaks and sky. "I guess you think you're pretty great," The rose was heard to cry, Screaming as loud as it possibly could To the treetop in the sky. "And now you have no time for flower talk, Now that you've grown so tall." "It's not so much that I've grown," said the tree, "It's just that you've stayed so small.
