by the trees?

 by the trees?


put me in your drawing please

shall i stand over there by the trees

or would you prefer if i walked away

and you could draw me in the way

that you catch a moment before it’s gone

oh go on go on draw me please

on my knees if you prefer for the breeze

of autumn is hunching life’s shoulders 

i am one of life’s defeated soldiers

marching a dirge towards my grave

oh go on go please be brave

put me in your drawing please

i think i’ll lie down

over there 

under the trees
