I Want You in My Tree
I want you in my tree.
The height from here
Makes crystal clear
Your shot glass filled with tea.
It’s you without a doubt.
I barely chance
A downward glance
While lasts the stormy drought.
So dry my tears with rain;
Can brimming eyes
Dispel disguise?
Now what is left to gain?
Let’s dance ‘til leaves are stirred
And heartbark raw
Is bared in awe
With every spoken word.
Just take my wants with rain.
A drop or two
And we’ll make do;
We’ll climb to higher plains.
