warmth



Father, Father, listen!
Today the little bird left its nest
And the pink petals went away
And the stones rolled down the hill
And the people laughed terribly loud
And the papers littered my table
And the sky is vast

Father, Father, answer!
Is the Earth warm enough?

into the spring storm



In the spring storm,
I hear a lullaby—sweet and soft
Look, the trees dance slowly to the tune
Look, spring wants you to dance too
So let's wear your cold, cold toes and
Wear your wet jacket
We dance under the rain and falling leaves
Spring storm is coming and going,
Don't let it pass! Don't let it pass!
We will go together—one, two, one, two
So let's wear your cold, cold toes and
Join the storm!
