Light of the moon
Could I stand with the light
of the willowsÂ
Â
and dance till sundown
biding my time
till the moon rises?
Â
And what would it be likeÂ
to be my own? Only the calla liliesÂ
will know why I
sing to the stars
Â
the roads will still be paved
but I will laugh
till sunrise
Â
knowing
Â
I have
become.
