Goldgreen stretched out her leafy arms, as if she was trying to lift straight into the air and fly away. Entwives wanted to settle down in gardens and preferred plants to stay put? Not her!
It had taken a long time for her to make up her mind—or perhaps rather to gather courage and admit she had already done so, whether others considered it unnatural or not—but tomorrow she would talk to Treebeard and ask to accompany him, when he left again for the wilds, and also hint, at least, how much her brother would prefer to stay.

The image prompt showed a (human) girl in a shiny green dress, with wings made out of leafy tree branches.
The title is from the canonical song, from the stanza in which the male Ent praises the charms of the woodland in spring.
