a bleckie chirms
the auld gairdner ower
...clud hapt sin
a blackbird sings
the old gardener asleep
...cloud covered sun
anither haijin
gane, gane
tae an airt o nae saisons
another haijin
gone, gone
to a place of no seasons
yince a seed he plantit -
nou a sned brainch
steidyin the auld gairdner
once a seed he planted -
now a cut branch
steadying the old gardener
the autistic laddie
loos his kite -
feels its yerk tae be awa
the autistic boy
loves his kite -
feels its tug to be away
maggie keeks oot
frae the gean flourish's
bibble bath
magpie peeps out
from the cherry blossom's
bubble bath
thrum a pickle blues -
whiles the robot
maws the green
strum a little blues -
whilst the robot
mows the lawn
hearkenin tae operae -
ootby
derk cluds rowein in
listening to opera -
outside
dark clouds rolling in
naethin
i the moch trap
bit muinlicht
nothing
in the moth trap
but moonlight
