windflowers

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
