The Enchanted Forest Lily, a young girl, with a curious look, Ventured into the woods, her heart all aglow, Eager to explore, to see where it would go.
She followed a trail, covered in emerald green moss, Listening to whispers of leaves as she crossed, The sound of a babbling brook guiding her way.
She stumbled upon an old oak tree so wise, Its branches whispered secrets as they danced in the skies, The tree asked Lily to stop and listen with care.
Lily closed her eyes and let her heart be still, She listened to the stories the forest would spill, Creatures big and small, sharing their tales.
A squirrel shared jokes, making her giggle and play, A butterfly whispered dreams, inspiring her each day, The enchanted forest filled her heart with such joy.
As the sun began to set and the day turned to night, Lily thanked the forest for its wondrous sight, She promised to return and listen again soon.
Back home in her bed, under a cozy sheet, Lily dreamt of the forest, where her heart felt complete, She learned that by listening, she could discover so much.
So remember, my dear, as you go on your way, Listening to others brings brightness each day, In a world full of stories, let your heart be your guide.
