HARMONIOUS HAIKU Lyrics...

1.Ah~, first day of spring / I can feel na-ture trem-ble / like a new born child
Ah~, spring has returned / just as fresh as the first one / all things new once more
Ah~, long live the spring / pain-ting life with its co-lors / red yel-low blue green

2.Spring day rise and shine / life a-wakes to mor-nings light / fresh as mor-ning dew
Spring day mor-ning sun / glow-ing from the hor-i-zon / rays reach out and shine
Spring day new and bright / crea-tures great and small ad-mire / na-ture re-in-spir'd

3.Sun-set glows gent-ly / day-time greets the eve-ning breeze / spring re-ceives the night
Hill-side gra-sses sway / af-ter-noon paints the sky / soft light shades of red
Pink skies soft-ly shine / friend-ly crea-tures run and fly / pa-ssion thrives in spring

4.Wa-ter-falls through green / vines and branches climbing rocks up gray mountain sides
Grey moun-tains a-scend ear-ly summers clear skies of bright blues and soft whites
Green and grey and blue fill-ing up this view I see of early sum-mer

5.Blue deep for-e-ver / o-cean cliffs and crash-ing waves / sea-gulls sea bree-zes
Foa-my o-cean mist / sing-ing sounds of birds and whales / end-less o-pen sky
Maze of mossy cliffs played like drums by falling waves deep blue e-ter-nal

6.Golden summer hills waves of wheat swelling stirring one tree stands alone
Light from summer sun shining amber rays glowing over this harvest
Here a-mongst these hills nothing stands alone or still devine alchemy

7.Co-lor-ful au-tumn / leaves on whir-ling winds piling / up
Au-tumns co-lors paint / land-scapes vi-vid orange yellow
Spinning seeds spiral on leafy wings and silk strands

8.October harvest gathering pumpkins and corn amidst howling winds
Autumns last sha-dows spiders weaving webs of glass on a wooden fence
Scarecrows stand night watch ravens perched on black barbed wire cauldrons bubble steam

9.Thank-ful times warm fires / smo-ky air good and plen-ty / na-ture serves a feast
Fam-lies ga-ther-ing cran-ber-ries bright red and tart su-gar makes them sweet
Au-tumns end is near wheels of time roll win-ter in time for warm blan-kets

10.In a pond bathing hot springs warm waters softly thoughts are all distant
Rising as leaves fall pond water ripples gently lily pads floating
Bright circles of light ballet the waters edge winters chill subsides

11.White snow falling down gently making sounds winter sleeping keeping warm
Black bird wooden fence snowflakes dancing winds whirling circles in the snow
White snow on the ground grey mist fros-ty air tall fence near-ly hi-dden now

12.Almond blossoms fall horses running free and wild
Branches dressed in white flowers growing strong and wild
Fallen petals white blanket the earth far and wide
