The Worm and the Tree, Pt. 3: Regeneration / Epilogue |
The forest seemed clearer and peaceful at last |
Like after a storm when the rainclouds have passed |
And although the great tree was fallen and dead |
They knew from the ashes a new life would spread |
Yes, although the great tree had fallen and died |
They knew: from the ashes a new one would thrive |
Now, years may have passed since the tale I have told |
Yet the truth of this story does still seem to hold |
Although from a great tree a small worm may grow |
That eats it with poison and tortures its soul |
The worm can be killed yet the tree be not dead |
For from the roots of the elder a new life will spread |
