I’m skipping through the meadow
The wind’s in my hair
My sundress is billowing in the wind
There are daisies in my hair
Because I put them there
I call out to you
Come with me
Come skipping in the meadow
You answer with a shake of the head
And retreating footsteps
You run away
You have nothing to say
I call out to you
Come back
But you continue to run with your mind
Into that oblivion
Where I will never find you again
And I ask you
Why aren’t you happy now?
With the blue sky overhead
And the puffy white clouds
With the wind blowing your hair
And the grasses Simultaneously
And the pretty flowers all around
Why aren’t you happy now?
