In a land of make-believe,
Where adventure is a daily reprieve,
Lived a brave young boy, so bold and free,
Whose name was Jack, as you'll soon see.

Jack loved to play with his bow,
With feathered arrows in a row,
And dreamt of battles that were fought,
Where heroes won and evil was caught.

One day as he crept through the woods,
He saw a creature, so misunderstood,
It was a beaver, trying to gnaw,
On a fallen tree, with all its claw.

"Hello there, little guy," Jack said,
"Don't be afraid, I won't cause dread,
I have a bow and arrows too,
But I won't harm you, that much is true."

The beaver stopped and turned around,
And in its eyes, a friend it found,
And so, together, they explored,
The forest, where peace was adored.

No more thoughts of war or strife,
Just friendship and adventure for life,
And so, with a smile, Jack and his friend,
Lived happily ever after, until the end.
