A wide open field
Where grass blows in the wind.
A narrow stream gurgling,
From a distant waterfall bubbling.
The dancing umbrella cut dress,
Lined sleeves with ruffling frills
The swooshing long tail of a neatly tucked bow
That follows her toes wherever she goes.
A beige sheet of starched cotton spread
On the grassland by the dried riverbed,
A bottle of water glistening
With the spring sun listening
To that song that floated around
As she moved on her toes;
Round and round and round.
Wild flowers lying low
Swinging with the water flow.
And the song goes like this:
*Only if I could have a kiss,
Now that is the only thing I miss
From your lips to mine
Under this spring sunshine.
Because I love me in this dress
As you loved me in this dress,
And made me love you
By making me fall in love with myself.
As they dance the ruffles caress my face
Which reminds my cheeks of the trace
That you left with your palm,
Caressing me till I become
The girl who loves herself because
There will be, there is and there was
Within her this overwhelming love
Of a kind whose definition she didn't know of.
This makes my feet dance in joy...
...Because I love me in this dress
As you loved me in this dress,
And made me love you
By making me fall in love with myself.*
And there were feet on the grass
Turning round and round.
And there was a song of love
Under the spring time sun floating around.
And then there was a dress with ruffled sleeves.
