Aria

These green trees move and grow
I told her there deep in the forest
while I inhaled the earliest morning

and in the slightest breeze she said
I’ll bet you hear them singing

And how could I say no
when she held my hand,
let me take her there at sunrise
how could I deny

they do not hesitate to sing
or hide themselves from light she said
be like the morning starlings

sing awhile amid the green
no other voices matter

  1. This is so beautiful! I especially like; “they do not hesitate to sing
    or hide themselves from light.” 🙂
