City of Trees

I saw one day a city of trees Walking down a path with me Following hidden eyes to see Saplings jungled up together Like a stream of walkers too Confused at all by windy weather Deer pellets scattered walk-aways Somebody's got to clean that up Small insects eat away the maze Emerald canopy of light Daylight flyers speeding through Branches complicate their flight Crowded young trees struggling tight Set an arboreal street fight Leaping tall for teen age light Botanical light shows in the trees Sun rays scattering breezily through Red and green for traffic leaves Partying fireflies up all night Celestial revue of starlight bright Crickets and peepers sing delight Subway system of crooked holes Gophers nudging sexy moles Touching each other heading home Spiders vending corpsal flies In handy snacky six-pack buys To homeward-bound commuter eyes Fauna's eating Flora The Breeze Loving her out in the hot dry leaves Completing her lust for life you see And Green Man is the mayor bold Dryad, she's his squeeze and maid Public works by beavers laid Learning to walk, a child of three First time I saw the City of Trees Dryad was holding her hand for me Dryad, she's my love to be Taking her inventory of bees Holding her charms about the trees So we say and so it seems City of Trees and sunlight beams Making love for me and my dreams
