The Coming of the Light
You say the light is coming You have seen it before Preparations made Joy in the air You sing as you skip Petticoat hangs below hem Hop over mudpuddls Spin around Skirt red Hat on your head of red Snow covered yesterday This morning clear and shinning joy for all Earlier the light was coming Now the light is here We struggle to stay afloat Avoid drowning The smell of tadpoles Surrounds us The sound of bullfrogs Calling…….calling I remember it was summer The sun hot We sat in the sun together You asked if I minded your nakedness
