Concept 66?
To have no roof of ones own
Is to have no home
How I long for the woods
And the starred open sky.
But the nights are so cold
For the winter has come.
How I envy the trees
With the breeze in their leaves
Moved softly at sunset
Like the caress of my lovers fingers
Through my wild hair.
How fresh are the streams
And how clean is the air
In the forest
How deep is the silence
Without wind on the high
Distant mountains?
Envy not the gold
In the streets of the city
Never was thine inheritance
Take grass for thy bed
Rain for thy wine,
and the moon for thy candle.
