Of The Poppies & Lillies

The road was meandering along
and I kept walking
on the sidewalk, skipping at the boulders
Sometime here and sometime there
Right in the middle of the road
balancing like a dancer on the divider

And when I looked left
you were there, ready to hold
And when I looked right
you were there, ready to scold
Only through your eyes
wondering at my moves
Ohh I love that LOOK
a li'l worry, a li'l tense & a lot of love

It brings a joy to my heart
that only poppies did as a kid
The bright red ones with black eyes
that swung to a rhythm in the breeze
To light up a smile in me
everytime I turned around to see
They taught me a step in dance
look up and smile everytime you get a chance

It makes me alive with a glow
that only lillies did as a kid
Rows and Rows of yellows n pinks
would greet me inbetween the winks
To bring in a desire to be more
than just the overt confidence I wore
They taught me a way of life
never be too wrought to strife

Its like that often with you
its the moments I get very few
It reminds me of those times as a kid
the smile n dance thing that we did
It brings back the memories
Of the wonderful Poppies and lillies :)
