You crown of spring,
Why do you cry?
Can you not see,
The sun is your eye?

Set your heart on the ocean
Just before dusk
That must be your mirror
Why else would you blush?

Your tears coat the land
When you forget who you are
Do you not know
That you carry the stars

Oh wonderful blue,
You're so dearly loved
It must be hard to see that
From so high above

Now don't get me wrong
Your tears aren't all bad
They inspire the plants
To reach up their hands

I know that I'm small
And like plants, I can't reach you
So just look at your image
There's a lot it can teach you
