You Are Fresh And New



When I dream while sleeping
each subtle dream is you
It is all worth keeping
as fresh and new

When I crown while chasing
each triple crown is you
It is all worth placing
as fresh and new

When I treat while snacking
each ample treat is you
It is all worth packing
as fresh and new

When I sense while thinking
each simple sense is you
It is all worth linking
as fresh and new

When I dance while swaying
each couple dance is you
It is all worth playing
as fresh and new

When I feel while squeezing
each supple feel is you
It is all worth seizing
as fresh and new
