Out in the Open!


 

Dawn of fresh mood, out in the open,

 invites us from the dark of rooms

and welcomes us with laughter broad,

with caring clasps, keeping abreast.

 

Clear the throats, the Crows in nests

to compete with the vocalists, Cuckoos.

Caw the craws, though thinking sweet,

possess a scratching sound, in fact.

 

Cuckoos in a style assertive

start their singing in sugary tone.

With a voice of sweet contralto,   

keep they sure a tenor of songs.

 

The athletes, squirrels practice a race,

through the tracks of trees much tall,

being aware of the butcher-Cats

that clutch them well, while roaming there.

Target Cats the Squirrels, of course,

But well-groomed are they in race-art.

Bushes and trees standing there

fall in an amusing mood indeed.

 

Therefore, clap they well their hands

Shaking the bodies well in speed

In tune with Cuckoos’ melodious tones,

And the sober song of breeze cool.

 

Performs the Wind boogie-woogie

Wobbling speedily from left to right.

And joins joyfully hands with the band

That the birds and plants have formed.
