The Older Generation

Under the tree - Garmadon

I looked outside once more,

There she was again,

That same girl - Misako,

She lived down the lane,

And there she was,

Under the blossom tree,

Her hair flying playfully,

Casting off, Free,

She gave me a little glimpse,

But then she turned away,

I looked hopeful at her,

Just wanting her to stay,

We didn't really know each other,

She was just a new neighbour,

With courage I walked up,

And sat right next to her,

She stared at me, she did,

And I did the same,

We communicated without words,

Not needing to say my name,

I really can't believe,

That's what all it took,

To get to know each other,

Just one simple look,

My heart was beating fast,

Bouncing up like thunder,

One thing knew how I felt,

The tree that I sat under,

Love is something,

I can't control,

Whatever I do,

With whichever soul,

But dearest Misako,

I've taken an interest in you,

And I really, really hope,

That you do too.
