There, I sat on the bench under the chandelier of twistin' florids After quivers against winds from a turning season And blessed the earth carpeted with decaying leaves Where October forespent upon the feathery bank So I hung my hammock between the trees And rested my head like a good ol' vagabond
My sketchbook is full of your symbols Sure I did drink coffee in the morning But still hazy I am of you
I played with foams aphrodisiac As I rowed a wooden skiff with my oars Over a river of many dreams I folded manyfold So I praised this holy enclave of lights so beatific For a mill in the dew bobbed nigh a brook so bucolic I taught birds to sing like O tengo duende, cariΓ±o! Highland cattles flocked around me in curiosity
The empty breezeway records lolling memories like a music box I remember that old professor with faded glasses Looking so profound but frankly tired Saw something in me, and I felt understood
