A bunch of ellipses, a cylinder, and some lines are hanging around together talking:

The ellipses, “Hey, we’re leaves!”

The long cylinder, “And I’m a trunk.”

The lines, “I guess we’re branches.”

They arrange themselves accordingly. Euclid comes along, sits down next to the shapes, and asks what they are.

The shapes respond, “Gee, I’m a tree!”
