I was given directions
to plant 10 trees,
in 5 straight rows,
with 4 in each.

It can be done
and it's really not hard.
accomplish it
and you'll find a star.

Thanks, Sir Real, you're a star!  Didn't find many postings here so stooped to old fun riddle type.

perhaps if you
took all 10 trees
cut them in half
to make twenty
then you will find
that you can make
5 rows of four...
if they were fake

(though not in the shape of a star =o)...)

I wanted to try to draw a picture of how it would really coe out with the star and all, but I havent gotten around to it...besides, I cant draw, right Rebecca?? hehe
