my father told me not to go 

near them 

He said he feared them always 

and he told me that they 

carried him away 

Windflowers,beartiful 

windflowers 

I couldn”t wait to touch them 

to smell them I held them  

closely 

And now I cannot break away 

Their sweet bouquet disappears 

like the vapor in the desert 

So take a warning ,son 

Windflowers ,ancient 

windflowers 

their beauty capture every 

young dreamer 

who lingers near them 

But ancient windflowers, 

I love you
