All In A Golden Afternoon

All in a golden afternoon Under the skies of cloudless blue Trees sway in the light of day Every which way from a gentle wind blowing Never to be known where it’s going Brown boots laced up tight as can be Dozing off in a feild of wildflowers Longing for the day I will at last be free Flowers full of color and bees come buzzing Swarming around my head looking for something sweet Looking into the spring sun as bright as can be The bees never bother me For I am free As I’ll ever be All in a golden afternoon Under the skies of cloudless blue
