A Pine Needle

A pine needle fell in my hair Reawakening an old longing Hit on the head by an apple Newton discovered gravity His finding was so important For our world and age The first brick of knowledge For every pupil and sage But this longing of mine Has made me a different man While I'm trying hard To get the law of love Newton, I admire you But now stay away from me A pine needle fell in my hair And I forgot all about gravity
