"Tears welled in the eyes of Jolyon Manning outside Alexandra Primary School when he looked at what was left of a huge snow gum tree that stood at one of the main entrances to the school." It's murder I tell thee!! Sadness for the loss of a tree - that's humanity if ever I saw it. The Snow Gum Tree Saw it through a plastic wrapper In a paper through my door A story bout a snow gum tree That stood outside a school no more The sawdust on the ground was thick And covered the green grass And old man stood beside the stump For a view no longer passed Snow gum tree you died for me The old tree roots they cracked the concrete Wanting to break free It shed its leaves for us to play in For long dark centuries I peel away the plastic wrapper Feel the paper clean inside A monument to light my fire For a tree that lonely died Snow gum tree you died for me
