I once saw a chimerical lady, just for a moment,
I remember rubbing my eyes in glorious wonderment,
I thought she must have been an apparition or heaven sent,
In a short whisper she was gone, and my joy was almost spent.
She hid behind a Maple tree imitating a bird’s song.
All she was wearing was a beautiful red and gold sarong,
I was captivated by her and I tried to sing along.
Suddenly she appeared and began to dance and sing this song.
" See what a mischievous day this is,
The Sun has a smile on it’s face,
The Old moon is lost in a giggle,
And all of us are dancing in space."
She finished her odd song, took a short bow and then turned to leave,
I was shaking my head. It was more than I could ever believe,
She turned her head and smiled, then she winked at me to deceive,
I sat down under that Maple tree and I was left to grieve.
For years I returned to that place but never saw her again,
I have since had a grueling life filled with loneliness and pain,
Sometimes I spare a moment when about me is pouring rain,
And I sing that song from the chimerical lady’s refrain.
" See what a mischievous day this is,
The Sun has a smile on it’s face,
The Old moon is lost in a giggle,
And all of us are dancing in space."
