Asks the Acorn of the Oak, 

"Why am I so small?

Where will my branches reach?

When will my leaves abound?

How will my roots grow deep?"

Says the Oak to the Acorn,

"Now you are small so you can grow tall.

From inside your branches will stretch wide.

Season to season your leaves will increase.

Little by little your roots will grow deep, 

Both when you're awake and when you're asleep.

So Dream Big, Walk Tall, and Live Well, Young Oak.

You're As You Should Be. Share Your Joy and Your Hope!"
