Sibling 1:

There's a mulberry tree in my backyard,

but should there even be one over there?

He said his favorite berry was the mulberry

He said she planted the seed to grow into a great tree

as a way to say

that she still loves him, regardless

of the fact that she's married, he ignored my 'regardless'

I sit in my backyard

and I tell my father there is something I want to say

I tell my father about the man standing over there

My father looks at the mulberry tree

My father said he never liked the word mulberry

It's up to me whether I want to see that mulberry

tree every day, regardless

of my mother's feelings for the tree

I know it's just a tree in my backyard,

but what the tree could represent, always standing over there...

It's something I don't want to say

I have my mother tell me and say

what she thinks of the mulberry

tree standing over there

She tells me she doesn't care what I do with the tree, regardless

of the look in her eyes, the look that tells me the tree in the backyard

means so much more to her than just some random tree

I stare at the other tree

Nothing much about it there is to say

It's the oldest tree in my backyard

Has it befriended the mulberry?

I honestly don't know, but regardless,

something is going to change in my backyard over there

He is watching me, over there

But I look away and face the tree

I hesitate, but regardless

of whatever I might feel, I have to say

something about whether or not there should be a mulberry

tree in my backyard

Now regardless of whatever someone might say,

there is no mulberry

tree in my backyard
