Gathered together from greatest to poorest
    thickets and meadows, a lush mighty forest.

    Peace and great solace amidst the strong trees
    broad leaf and fine needle they sway in the breeze.

    Deep in the wood I am free to roam wild
    Serene and at peace, a true nature’s child.

    I blend with the foliage—meld into the green,
    just take it all in—I’m everywhere seen.
