My girl's eyes always light up


When we go for a walk in the meadow

If the buttercups are in bloom, she smiles
Then she will lay down with them
They grin back at her
The bees buzz and fly away
While the Sun hides behind a cloud
They all know I will kiss her

She sighs, but I know that she is happy

  3. "They all know I will kiss her" and "I know that she is happy" I like that there seems to be a sense of knowing without the need of telling.

  7. I just love the thought (and mental image) of blooms smiling back. How happy they must be. And that would certainly spread.
