The Laurel Wreath

Once upon a time Apollo made fun of a God named Eros, who is just like Cupid, and to get back at Apollo, Eros shoots him with one of his golden arrows that made him fall in love with Daphne the virgin nymph. However he also shoots Daphne the virgin nymph with a leaden arrow that will keep Daphne the virgin nymph from ever reciprocating Apollo's love. So Apollo is forced to chase after the woman he loves with no hope of ever achieving his goal. But this romantic quest comes off as a bit creepy to Daphne the virgin nymph, especially when Apollo tricks her into stripping naked and bathing in a river for his pleasure. So, she went to her father, Peneus, for help and he decided the best way to help his daughter was to turn her into a tree. Daphne, the virgin nymph, saw no reason whatsoever why being a tree would be a bad thing either so the deed was done. Unfortunately for Apollo the affect of the arrow did not ware off once the virgin nymph of his dreams became an immobile piece of nature and so, Apollo became the first ever "tree-hugger." Eventually he even made a wreath out of her leaves and wore it as a crown to remember his once human love and the treemendous time he had trying to win her heart. Apollo also gave Daphne, the virgin tree, the gift of eternal youth so the beauty of her leaves will never fade and Apollo continued to love that tree forever and ever.
The end.
