Goodbye, says I.

For I am leaving on a journey.

Goodbye, says I.

To home I shall not returny.

~

Run run run, deep into the woods.

But I dare not be lost

Not here, from where I stood.

I will exit at all cost.

~

The forest is a magical place,

First, one must battle a tiger.

Just to see the face

Of another creature higher.

~

"So you would like to wrestle?"

I ask the giant bear.

"Yes, then surely will I nestle

In my homely cave, way out there."

~

Past the bear, past all that's scary,

I see something I must sing to.

A lovely looking fairy.

Then will I get through.

~

She bids a humble "Thank you." and leads me to a fountain

Now this is my final task, you see.

To climb the snowy mountain.

Then shall I accept my reward with glee.

~

An ice cold cup of milk.
