Tap to Place the Letters

In groves where fruits of green reside,
With pits within, like treasures hide.
With leaves so slender, smooth, and fair,
Which tree is this? Can you declare?

Chorus:
O olive tree, where heavens sleep,
Cradled near the foamy deep.
Your leaves hold tales of time’s great art,
And echo fairy tale’s beating heart.

Verse:
You rest where clouds and silence meet,
At universe’s green retreat.
Your dreams are oils in gentle motion —
Brush of da Vinci, Botticelli’s ocean.
Dryads hum on swinging vines,
Cradled in Murano’s shine.
With Milky Way in every limb,
You sway in stardust, soft and dim.

Verse:
Beneath the sun’s southern flame,
You whisper low a poet’s name.
Your roots drink myths from marble floors,
Old lullabies from ancient shores.
A crown for peace, for kings, for lore,
A key once carved in olive door.
You hold the hush of twilight’s glow,
Where time forgets how fast it goes.

Chorus:
O olive tree, where heavens sleep,
Cradled near the foamy deep.
Your leaves hold tales of time’s great art,
And echo fairy tale’s beating heart.
