We celebrate…
Elephant trees, and hippopotamus trees, and skateboard trees and bicycle trees, and Frisbee trees, and harmonica trees, and television trees and geometries.

Tu B’Shvat, Tu B’Shvat
It’s a holiday, I like a lot
And the reason, it’s the season
We celebrate trees on Tu B’Shvat
Tu B’Shvat!
