In the dark night

A tree towers high

The mother of the Forrest

Covers up the sky

Its a secret she protects

Though I can’t say why

She keeps her kids away

From the moons wondering eye

The children of the Forrest

With their branches held high

Beg their mother

“Let me see the sky”

“I can’t” she says

Though she wants to try

She must keep her kids

From the moons wondering eye

She told them fables

Story’s of a guy

That her mother told her

When she was just a child

The man in the moon

With axe arwry

She must keep them safe

From his wondering eye

One late night

The Forrest stirred

The man in the moon

He had returned

CHOP, CHOP, CHOP

Was all they heard

And down the mother came

The tables had turned

In the dark night

Trees tower high

The children of the Forrest

Cover up the sky

Its a secret they protect

Though I can’t say why

They keep their kids away

From the moons wondering eye
