• Ditty of First Desire

      In the green morning
    I wanted to be a heart.
    A heart.

      And in the ripe evening
    I wanted to be a nightingale.
    A nightingale.

      (Soul,
    turn orange-colored.
    Soul,
    turn the color of love.)

      In the vivid morning
    I wanted to be myself.
    A heart.

      And at the evening's end
    I wanted to be my voice.
    A nightingale.

      Soul,
    turn orange-colored.
    Soul,
    turn the color of love.
