The Trees At Night Seen

On the grassy lawn A tree with the buds Have turned to leaves When there is darkness An image appears It is a face of- A full grown lion's face seen By the front window Is a bush budding It has the green buds Soon will turn to leaves When darkness appears There is a lion's face
