There in the woods
There in the snow
There in a place
where strange creatures go
Deep in the forest
Deep in the brush
Deep in the center
far away from us
Once as a child
Once with a book
Once upon a time
I went for a look
To my surprise
Two rabbits appeared
To kindly greet me
which seemed rather weird
A fox with some crumpets
A weasel with some tea
A badger with a placemat
set just for me
We dined until moonfall
We sang winters song
We danced with ice fairies
merrily and long
Time it was to go
Time was calling me
Time to meet mother
for my breakfast tea

The Rain Falls Purple

the rain falls purple
as it falls upon my head
but by the time it reaches
the tip of my nose
the rain is turning red
the rain drips green
as it drips upon my shoes
but by the time it reaches
the sidewalk
as it falls upon my head
but by the time it reaches
the tip of my nose
the rain is turning red
the rain drips green
as it drips upon my shoes
but by the time it reaches
the sidewalk
the rain is turning blue
the rain runs orange
as it runs thru my hollow
and by the time it reaches
the creek the rain is
turning yellow
the rains falls purple
the rain drips green
the rain runs orange
turning red,
turning blue,
turning yellow in between
