White Flower

36847
White Flower, a name she has been called before
Barefoot, she feels the earth beneath her
Darkened, she rises for a voice to meet her
With quick steps she runs, for a call is beckoning
Running, running, running through a whirlwind full of sound
Spinning, spinning, spinning though these sounds scream out too loud
Bending to meet the ground she sinks, unwound
Falling, falling, falling endlessly should it be found
Oh what a twisted fate for a crown, a rabbit, and a snake
