What is the picture in your head?
Forest floor glowing orange
on a rainy fall day
the light patter of tear drops
falling down
an occasional leaf
going down
Will you picture other things in your crown?
The branches are almost empty
on a rainy fall day
The clouds all covering the sky
and no birds chirping all around
light patter of rain
falling down
Will you stand yourself all the way up?
All the way up and all around.
On rainy fall day
with no birds chirping for a sound
and the leaves all orange on the ground
standing there waiting like a hound
nothing to do but stand around.
Will you bother to go and walk around?
Time has come to make a sound.
No use crying all around.
