She arrived weary and weak

Desperate for a place to rest.

The cool of the forest a welcome respite

From the long, hot, dusty trail.

Thirsty, she drank 

of the clear, cold spring

​

The Wise Woman of the forest spoke.

"My dear, you need change.

The way forward is through your pain.

Your darkest hours are over now.

See the light,

Feel the breeze,

Taste the clear, refreshing spring.

Walking through the worst

Gives you the Key

To fly free."
