There's a secret picnic spot |
|
A place for us to greet |
|
To stretch out our feet |
|
If we go there now |
|
With blanket and basket |
|
Lay down in the tall grass |
|
Spread our things out and feast |
|
Meet the setting sun with our blank slate |
|
My distractions concentrated on an eight by six piece of wool |
|
As darkness seeps through the trees |
|
And spreads over our secret picnic spot |
|
We'll dig in |
|
Dig with our hands, tearing the roots |
|
Digging, scraping, digging |
|
The moon comes up howling |
|
Racing, digging, scraping |
|
Breezing dark across the sky |
|
Caught in the branches |
|
Swaying up and over |
|
Through the clouds and black |
|
Starless |
|
Secret |
|
Basket turned broomstick |
|
A hayride across the big blue and black |
|
Buried, deep mounds of dirt and stardust covering up |
|
Eight by six piece of wool draped over fine lines |
|
The curves of a feast |
|
This is our secret picnic spot |
|
Turned inside out and made pure |
|
By the heavy wind and rustling leaves |
|
From now till we greet again |
|
Joining hands and feet |
|
Tender teeth, digging and scraping |
|
Tender feast |
|
Moonlight sway |
|
Over all |
