By virgin in the green she took me Down by the banks of celandine We fucked and wore the summer in We rolled and wore the summer out
Made love a mist to hide in Made lust a drink to drown in Made both a shirt to wear and discard
We talked musk mallow birdsong Loosestrife violet joy The dodder-drained sun Spurge the cut-grass whimpers The creeping yellow cress sun Summer's here and now
By virgin in the green the foxglove blush Sticky-grass hair snagging summer scent We fucked and reeled the summer in We rolled and wore the summer out
And sang: I the babbling meadowsweet stream She the scented campion fields I to cup the buttercup moon She to wear a daisy-chain of stars.
