into a kingly tree
your trials no one will know
your quests no one will see

I plant you in the ground
and I bequeath to thee
the forest will have joy
when you become a tree

Weeds come trying to steal water
frost comes chilling you to sleep
bugs come gnawing at your leavelets
but they will not overcome thee

Solatia will depart
when shadows you cast down
your shade will calm the heart
and joy you will abound

And we will see the rainbow
from the top of your canopy

I''ll wait for you til then
my gentle little tree

And we will see the sun shine
from the top of your canopy

We''ll grow strong together
my little precious seed

Oh precious little seed

Topic: SongLyrics

Oh tender sappling grow
into a kingly tree
your trials no one will know
your quests no one will see

I plant you in the ground
and I bequeath to thee
the forest will have joy
when you become a tree

Weeds come trying to steal water
frost comes chilling you to sleep
bugs come gnawing at your leavelets
but they will not overcome thee

Solatia will depart
when shadows you cast down
your shade will calm the heart
and joy you will abound

And we will see the rainbow
from the top of your canopy

I''ll wait for you til then
my gentle little tree

And we will see the sun shine
from the top of your canopy

We''ll grow strong together
my little precious seed

Beautiful work. I loved
what you did with
your themes.
From tender sappling to
Kingly tree.

This is a wonderful write.

Weeds come trying to steal water
frost comes chilling you to sleep
bugs come gnawing at your leavelets
but they will not overcome thee
