Akiko Waters Of March
A stick, a stone, It's the end of the road, It's the rest of a stump, It's a little alone
It's a sliver of glass, It is life, it's the sun, It is night, it is death, It's a trap, it's a gun
The oak when it blooms, A fox in the brush, A knot in the wood, The song of a thrush
The wood of the wind, A cliff, a fall, A scratch, a lump, It is nothing at all
It's the wind blowing free, It's the end of the slope, It's a beam, it's a void, It's a hunch, it's a hope
And the river bank talks of the waters of March, It's the end of the strain, It's the joy in your heart
The foot, the ground, The flesh and the bone, The beat of the road, A slingshot's stone
A fish, a flash, A silvery glow, A fight, a bet, The range of a bow
The bed of the well, The end of the line, The dismay in the face, It's a loss, it's a find
A spear, a spike, A point, a nail, A drip, a drop, It's the end of the tale
A truckload of bricks in the soft morning light, The shot of a gun in the dead of the night
A mile, a must, A thrust, a bump, It's a girl, it's a rhyme, It's a cold, it's the mumps
The plan of the house, The body in bed, And the car that got stuck, It's the mud, it's the mud
Afloat, adrift, A flight, a wing, A hawk, a quail, It's the promise of spring
And the riverbank talks of the waters of March, It's the promise of life It's the joy in your heart
It's a snake,it's a stick, It is John, it is Joe, It's a thorn in your hand and a cut in your toe
And the riverbank talks of the waters of March, It's the promise of life in your heart in your heart
A pin, a needle, A sting, a pain, A snail, a riddle, A wasp, a stain
A pass in the mountains, A horse and a mule, In the distance the shelves rode three shadows of blue
And the riverbank talks of the waters of March, It's the end of the strain, The joy in your heart
A stick, a stone, A pin, a needle, A sting, a pain, A snail, a riddle, A wasp, a stain A bee, a bite, a blink
A pin, a wasp, A sting, a pain, A snail, a riddle, A drip, a drop
A fish, a flash, A spill, a spike, A point, a nail, A nail
