"Whether our branches are full of life

Or lifeless, broken or bare,

Whether they're blooming with blossom and colour,

Or broken beyond repair,

It doesn't matter if we are at the bottom,

Or climbing tall and high,

Or whether we've reached the middle,

Or whether we've reached the sky,

As a tree still keeps on growing,

Steady, strong and true,

So our branches keep on growing outstretched,

With love for Hope08 Crewe."

"Meetings, news n arguments, that's all u c,

But Jesus came down 2 earth, He died 4 u n me.

He luvs the 1s who care 4 Him n holds them in His arms,

He isn't interested in the outside looks or n e other charms.

He just wants 2 no u, n 4 u 2 no He's there,

I just sent this poem, just becoz I care. Luv ya!"
