I laughed in the summer sun
I twirled and danced had fun
There on this high place I knew of life
This was me great fun no strife

Then chill winds did blow
My life source started fading away
Colours were changed each day
Green to gold it was the way

Secrets not told to me
How my life force failed
I would fall and be so alone
This is all you need as one

My life source did let me go
I felt so free then I started to flow
Down from the heavens you see
To touch the earth more to be

Why was this life so cruel to me?
A summer on high now this destiny
Laying here is this eternity
No I was told by my Mother tree

So day on day I let things go
To the Earth each part just so
There to change once more
Particles through forest floor

I became a food source
That my Mother held
She took me set me free
A bud on a beautiful tree
