Volleyball is fun in summer;
Snowball done in frosty winter.
In Spring we gather flowers;
In Autumn, leaves for hours.
It is fun to have a play-thing;
It is fun to laugh and sing.
There's a moment in time
Full of reason and rhyme.
I want to be the one
Who has a brown-boy son.
I hope that he may play
In the meadows of today.
Once I am all up and grown,
Someday when I am your own,
I want to see him have the love
That our games were made of.
I want him to smile at
The Frisbee and the bat.
I once frolicked through
This green land with you.
When will we be young again?
We were so free and silly then.
You were like a father-brother,
Now you are my lover.
