Quoted By:
Once upon a time, in a forest far and wide,
There lived a girl who ventured deep inside.
She found a tree that shone so bright,
Its glow enveloped her with a strange delight.
In an instant, she felt her form begin to change,
Her body turning into bark, her mind feeling strange.
For years, she stood rooted in the earth,
Watching the seasons change, as life found new birth.
She spoke to the trees, in a whisper soft and low,
Beneath her branches, she watched the world go.
A young girl came, named Sarah, full of grace,
And the tree spoke to her, of the past and the space.
The tree told her tales of a life once known,
Of adventures and friends, that now were all gone.
But Sarah stayed true, and kept visiting the tree,
Sharing her stories, and making her feel free.
The tree blossomed and grew, in the love of her friend,
And Sarah stayed true, to the very end.
For even in death, the tree stood tall and proud,
Her spirit still living, beneath the sun and the cloud.
So if you ever find yourself in a forest so wide,
And come upon a tree that fills you with pride,
Remember the tale of Lily, who turned into bark,
And how friendship and love, can light up the dark.
