Like sunshine
In the blue sky
Shiny and warm
Through the mists;
Like a singing bird
At daybreak
Voicing its rapture
Free and confident;
I want to wake up
Like a sunflower,
Waving through the
Slow-blowing wind.
I wish I would
Sleep peacefully
Before midnight,
Soft and warm as a child;
I could wake up
in the morning light,
Tranquil in delight
As a tripping butterfly.
