In a valley green and wide,
Beneath a starry sky,
Lies a lake so calm and still,
Where the plants and flowers thrive.

The wind comes rushing through,
Whispering secrets to the grass,
And the roots delve deep below,
Into the soil that they amass.

The earth is where they belong,
From which they draw their strength,
And with each passing day,
They grow to greater length.

So let us learn from nature,
And the wonders it imparts,
For when we work together,
We too can have strong hearts.
