There will come a flame and the smell of ashes,

and the sound of an old tree as it crashes;

And squirrels in the trees running at the sound,

And the beautiful oak as it falls to the ground;

Foxes will wear their furry blaze

howling their grief in the summer haze;

And not one would know of their end, not one

would know at last when their time is done.

Not one would expect its final breath

as it took the unsuspected turn to death.

And the wood herself would only recall

when all that she loved was lost after all.
