Lovers in the long grass
look above them
only they can see
where the clouds are
going
only to discover
dust and sunlight
ever make the sky so blue
Afternoon is
hazy
river flowing
all around the sounds
moving closer to them
telling them the
story
told by flora
dreams they never knew
Silver willows
tears from
Persia
those who come
from a far-off island
winter Chanterelle lies
under
cover
Glory-of-the-sun in blue
Some they know as passion
some as freedom
some
they know as love
and the way it leaves them
summer snowflake
for a season
when the
sky above is blue
when the sky above is blue
Lying in the long grass
close beside
her
giving her the name
of the one the moon loves
this will be the day she
will
remember
when she knew his heart
was
loving in the long grass
close beside
her
whispering of love
and the way it leaves them
lying in the long grass
in the
sunlight
they believe it's true love
and from all around them
flora's secret
telling
them of love
and the way it breathes
and
looking up from eyes
of
amaranthine
they can see the sky
is blue
knowing that their love
is
true
dreams they never knew
and the sky above is blue
