Oh no, oh dear! Lilly shed a tear. 'Where is my horn?' she'd say. She wandered the meadow, 'I need it today!' With a sigh deep and vast, she decided to ask.

First to Wise Tree she trotted, roots gnarly and knotted. 'Have you seen my horn? I've looked since the dawn!' The tree replied slow, 'No, but try Lily Pond below.'

Off to the pond she went, her hooves softly bent, causing ripples and such, in the water's soft touch. 'Dear frogs and fish, oh, I have just one wish! Have you seen my horn? It's much missed, forlorn.'

Lilly hopped to the garden, hoping no pardon. 'Oh flowers so bright, have you seen my horn's light?' The roses giggled and sighed, 'Not here, what a ride! Try the butterfly glade, where dreams do parade.'
