An old parrot, sitting in an oak tree, tells the story of a once-great tree and a boy who used to visit it. The parrot watched as the boy and the tree formed a bond, with the tree giving and the boy taking. As the years passed, the boys visits became less frequent, and the parrot noticed how time and life changed him. The parrot reflects on the differences between the trees love and the boys desires, sharing its memories of a past that still lingers in its mind.
