Life Is Like a Maypole

Life is like a Maypole I close my eyes and keep on turning The sun out shining and burning Getting hit by the yellow rays During those warm colorful days The smell of the fresh green grass There is no better time pass Being young, free and careless Roaming the world fearless Opening my eyes to a bright blue sky See the birds flying high White clouds moving in silence Everything in perfect balance Letting go of the balloon in my hand Going up like something grand Till nothing but a red dot appears Leaving for different spheres Feeling my lips curl into a smile Thinking back once in a while My heart warming and longing Going back and prolonging
