In a forest quaint, there lived a tree,

A clever raconteur, as talkative as can be.

With a bark that chuckled, leaves that chattered,

And a trunk that wiggled, it hardly mattered.

With a hoot, the owl declared,

"Your stories are wild, beyond compare!"

The tree replied with a rustling sound,

"They’re the funniest stories known around."

The owl blinked, then burst into laughter,

"I've heard it all, from here to thereafter!"
