weeping willows, cattails,
soft winds and roses,
rain pools in the woodland
water to my knees
shivering, quivering
the warm breath of spring.
weeping willows, cattails,
soft winds and roses...
catbirds and cornfields,
daydreams together
riding on the roadside,
the dust gets in your eyes,
reveling, disheveling
the summer nights can bring.
weeping willows, cattails,
soft winds and roses...
slanted rays and colored days
stark blue horizons,
naked limbs and wheat bins,
hazy afternoons,
voicing, rejoicing
the wine cups do bring.
weeping willows, cattails,
soft winds and roses...
harsh nights and candle lights,
wood fires ablazing,
soft lips and fingertips
resting in my soul,
treasuring, remembering
the promise of spring.
weeping willows, cattails,
soft winds and roses...
