There is a meadow
and the sun makes it glow,
butterfly flutterby.
There is a meadow which I’m sure I know,
butterfly flutterby laugh.
There is a meadow where my son likes to go,
tickle tree leaves
and sweet rays blinding.
There is a meadow with soft lover singing,
buttertree, ticklefly
blindrays laugh.
There is a meadow where we cry and dance,
trickle tear splash.
I know there’s a meadow
which I sometimes can hear
in the wind
in the silence
in the absence of here
I know there’s a meadow where the three of us play,
buttertree
ticklefly
splash.
