A Drab of Blight On the Forest Today
Her virginal leaves have aged to gray
Delight she once showed now gone astray
Snowball bush who used to be so bright,
What has happened to put out your light?
A drab of blight on the forest today
My fine sweet princess, did someone slay?
Cut your branches with an axe today?
If you tell me I will make things right.
Forever now a sorrowful sight.
A drab of blight on forest today
Your death imminent. What can I say?
I truly loved you in every way
Will try to fix you with all my might
I can still sense your marvelous light
A drab of blight on forest today
