 After dinner, Emaneska and Lilly went to bed. But Emaneska did not sleep. She waited until her mom came. "Sorry Emaneska, I had to write the checks to pay the bills tomorrow. Anyway, here is the tale of the Willow In The Woods." Mom said

"The willow is believed to be down deep in a dark and rainy forest, that is very, very, very, very hard to find. The tree I mean., not the forest. This magical tree of gold and green basically controls the forest. The plants, animals, and even the waters listen to this tree. It is a very powerful and majestic tree that only chooses one person each year to be able to find it. The directions to get to it show up in many different ways though." Mom said.

"Really!?" Emaneska asked. "Yep." Mom said. Emaneska paused. Memories of her dream flooded her mind. "I was the chosen one!" Emaneska yelled excitedly. "What do you mean?" Mom asked. "I had a dream, Yes! Woo hoo! Yeah! Woo... Hoo, Wait a sec, what does it mean if I'm chosen to find it?" Emaneska asked. "It means you are very very very very lucky." Mom said.

Mom walked out the door. Then, mom came back. "Oh, and I almost forgot! There also is a song written about it." Mom asked. There was a short moment f silence. "Uh, well, couldja sing it?" Emaneska said. "Ok aright, but I might not be able to sing very well." Mom added. She sang,
