432. Arolf And Jenni Poem by Jaden Knight

Arolf was cursed at birth to be special
to be a guardian of the woods
until he can pass the ultimate test
he will be a force for good

While he has the head of a wolf
his body is wooden like a tree
his mind and movements are that of a man
and so he has the best of all three

While terrifying in appearance
his nature is gentle and kind
he will not hurt those who won't harm on him
and is polite to all he finds

His uncursed younger sister Jenni comes to woods everyday
to tell him stories and to play
he teaches her about the nature of the trees
birds, beasts and even the bees

Arolf is bound to be immortal
destined to watch his sister grow old and die
until his tasks are finally completed
and he can rejoin her again in the sky
