Swish! Swish!
Floating flowers glide through the air, as bright as orange, yellow and red
Through the eyes of a young dreamer, nothing dull ever seems dead
Flowing, fluttering, flying, making me smile, like a warm hug from a distant friend
Whirling, whooshing, whispering wonder, great adventures that never end
As fall flutters by like a leaf in the wind, orange is all that can be seen
The weather is a blizzard, getting colder, not a single tree still green
An endless cycle of coldness, as winter draws in near
The flowers are as scared as a mouse, just like every single year
Flowers huddle together for warmth, as they can no longer stand up strong
Falling like a feather to the ground, they can’t keep this up for long
As spring slowly reblooms , the flower start waking up
Happy as a young child, like drinking happiness from a cup
