April Song

Willow, in your April gown
   Delicate and gleaming,
  Do you mind in years gone by
   All my dreaming?

Spring was like a call to me
   That I could not answer,
  I was chained to loneliness,
   I, the dancer.

Willow, twinkling in the sun,
   Still your leaves and hear me,
  I can answer spring at last,
   Love is near me!
