But time went by... and the tree was often alone.

The boy stayed away for a long time..when he came back the tree was so happy she could hardly speak. "Come boy, Come and play" "I am too old and sad to play." "I want a boat that will take me far way from here. Can you give me a boat?"

And so the boy cut down her trunk and made a boat and sailed away. And the tree was happy...

But not really...

After a long time the boy came back..I wish I could give you something... but I have nothing left. I am just an old stump. I am sorry..
