Milly's Song

Cristina Donà


Smile and the air lights up about you 
around you 
a million jewels in the champagne sky 
you smile and the clouds lift you skyward 
and higher 
a feather suspended floating through the air 
imagine now 
the stellar orchestra smiles 
because a while you're noticing 
imagine now 
intense and gently 
you're bound to see 
where some might say there's nothing there 
smile at the world and it surrenders 
whistling tunes 
at once strange and musical 
imagine now, 
forever 
you're bound to see 
where some might say there's nothing there
