A lonely little mushroom

Upon the forest floor

And soon it will whither

And give out many spores

 

Its life is most now over

No travelling it has done

It spent all day on the forest floor

With very little sun

 

The mushroom looked at me and said

Don't worry there old man

Cause everything will be okay

It's meant for us to both decay

 

Next year I came again

To that very spot

And I brought my little grandchild

A lovely little tot

 

This year the mushroom

Had a little friend

A little tot like me

Holding by the hand

 

The mushroom smiled

And looked at me

And said "The secret of the universe

It's here for you and me"
