How Little Fir Tree Saved Little Bunny

Author:
An original instructive fairy tale in verse based on the animated film 'Ecolyata' for my younger son, about how Little Fir Tree saved Little Bunny from a hunter. The result was a drawing for the tale, which my son created inspired by what he heard.

One day, on a sunny afternoon,
In the forest, snow-covered and beautiful
The 'ECOLYATA' sat
at the table
And drank tea made from raspberry twigs.

Mischief was telling a story again,
How in summer he saved the animals from fire,
And Little Fir Tree was sad,
drinking tea,
Looking out the window at the snow and saying nothing…

Suddenly, something troubled her,
She saw a frightened Little Bunny,
He was rushing down the hill, and behind him,
A shot rang out from a rifle, an old one…

Little Fir Tree jumped up, put on her boots and gloves
And ran to save Little Bunny!
And along the way she cried out to the whole forest:
"Stop! Don't you dare! Don't do it!
I won't allow our forest to be hurt!"

By the stump sat, trembling, timid Little Bunny,
Eyes frightened, heart pounding so…
Little Fir Tree gently embraced
The small white one and spoke softly:
"Don't be afraid, my friend, I won't let you be hurt!
The hunter won't dare
do any harm!
After all, we are defenders of nature – 'ECOLYATA'
We bring only goodness to the whole planet!"

Then the hunter came closer…
Poor Little Bunny trembled even more!
But Little Fir Tree
calmly turned around
And said to the man: "Now don't you dare!
For if we destroy all the animals,
Trample everything and cut down the forest,
Where else will we see the beauty
Of Mother Nature like this, in real life!?
Take a camera and enjoy
Everything that Earth has given us.
And know, as long as there are 'ECOLYATA' in the forest
We won't allow the forest's beauty
to be destroyed!"

The hunter, believe me, felt ashamed,
He remembered how he ran here as a boy,
Listened to the birds,
enjoyed sweet raspberries
And savoured the silence around him.

He bent down to the white timid one,
Stroked his fur and said: "Forgive me!
Let's be friends!" And
he pulled from his pocket
A piece of bread and treated the little bunny.
He said "Thank you!" to Little Fir Tree
And, saying goodbye, he disappeared behind
the hill
Into the snowy silence.

And so, one day, Little Fir Tree, without thinking about it…
Without fearing the hunter, saved the whole forest home!
