Spirit Of The Wildwood Tree

Spirit of the Wildwood Tree,

overgrown, disguised by flowers,

What strange Keeper placed you there,

making use of Ancient Powers ?

Birds and creatures, in the glade,

will they help release the Spell ?

Or must you forever stay

in your green and leafy dell?

Call upon your Keeper's Art,

call the Spirits of the Air,

Or you'll live a sad, sad life,

weeping in your Woodland Lair.
