The “Show Me Your Leaf” Chant

The official show me your leaf chant:

Show me your leaf, become a human tree.
Show me your leaf, we need a human tree.
Show me your leaf, become a human tree.
Show me your leaf, you’re now a human tree.
Repeat each verse over and over again.

Now, imagine if there were tens of thousands of people gathered in a venue, and each attendee carried a single leaf to hold above their head when instructed to do so. From an aerial view, it would be quite the spectacle, hence the beautiful human tree.

Interesting beliefs: ‘Jesuit missionaries apparently fancied that [this was the tree] that supported John the Baptist in the wilderness, but it is native only to North America.'”
