Once Upon a Time

Once Upon a time, 

a long long time ago,

there paths to be chosen,

and then there were roads.

There were books to be read. 

And then, there were poems.

There were shapes to the trees, 

personalities to their knots,

there were signs to be read,

and then they all forgot.

Once upon a time,

a long long time ago,

there were intriguing things to be seen,

there were interesting things to be read,

and then they all thought,

that that was enough said.
