Nature
/ nurture
David Brown
Oh, wax candelabra
Weeping willow tree
Lit by the sun
Oh, flash fish Excalibur
Applause of pigeon wing
Birdsong
Nature's trying so hard
To make me lower my guard
Just for a while to appreciate
You and the lake
Oh, bugs buzz above my head
Front crawl them all away
Bad dreams
Cliff face - a furrowed brow
Cloud cordons can't contain
Sunbeams
I am trying so hard
To become a part
Of this special day
With you and the lake
Nature or nurture
What you don't know can't hurt you
Nurture or nature
You're going to find out sooner or later |
