WINDFLOWERS

Windflowers, my father told me not to go near them.

He said he feared them always,

and he told me that they carried him away.

Windflowers, Beautiful windflowers I couldn't wait to touch them,

to smell them I held them closely.

And now I cannot break away.

Their sweet bouquet disappears like the vapor in the desert.

So take a warning, son.

Windflowers, Ancient windflowers.

Their beauty captures every young dreamer who lingers near them.

But ancient windflowers, I love you.
