Jack And The Tree

One day a boy named Jack
Sold his cow for seeds that came in a pack
These seeds were very rare
It is said they were rarer than a bear
Jack went and planted these seeds
Which were smaller than a bead
Jack had a long wait
Suddenly the tree sprouted just by fate
The tree was very big
Taller than a tree that sprouted fig
After a long time he climber the tree
And looked around like a bee
The first thing little Jack saw was a golden harp
Then he turned and saw a magical carp
The final thing he saw was a diamond cup
He took the loot, killed the giant, jumped of and blew it all up!
