LEAVES AND NEEDLES 
by Elar Kuus


    Many-many years ago the trees were without green.  Then   a green man came with a big bag and shouted:
    "Listen to me, come on trees! Choose leaves!”
    These trees, who grew at the same place, chose very quickly.
Tall chestnut grabbed big palmate leaves, though ash grabbed pinnate leaves,fat lime got heart-shaped leaves.Alder and willow ran very quicly  and chose the leaves for themselves as well.Now the bag was empty.
Conifers were without leaves.
