Ben and Hazel and Jack

Hazel Evans of Fairfold

And her brother, Ben, too,

Were born to two artists

Who had way too much to do.

 

Hazel and Ben grew up

Wild and completely free,

But there parents were very careless,

So the kids looked for something to eat.

 

Those kids were resourceful

And clever to boot.

They gathered edible plants

And made their own soup.

 

They met a boy named Jack

And taught him all they knew.

He might have been of the Folk,

But he was not one to say ‘boo’.

 

Ben and Hazel and Jack,

They grew up wild and free.

Together they learned the forest,

They learned almost every tree.

 

Ben and Hazel and Jack,

A musician, a knight, and a Fae;

It just make sense that they were the ones

Who together saved the day.

 (inspired by The Darkest Part of the Forest by Holly Black)
