Je veux passer ma vie avec toi
~ ~ ~
Sweat smears petal brow
Sound of a dog barking and growl
Sky face looks like a scowl
Lovers embrace in tree shade
Blended goals are handmade
If only this day would never fade
Yellow flowers shine
Before the sun can have a chance to pine
Stump grinder seems to work just fine
Don’t take our shade away
They pray and pray and pray
“Deforestation” is all the mad machines say
Daddy and young daughter walk
Kicking at every jagged rock
They see birds fly high in a migrating flock
Grandparents rock on the porch
Their decades of history is as a torch
Almost forgotten blueberry muffins try to scorch
