HILLTOP DUET, by EMMY VERONICA SANDERS First Line: Old vagabond wind Last Line: Brrr . . . | |||
The Tree Old Vagabond Wind, Will you never take root? Will you never settle down To the soil, And bear fruit? The Wind Old Stay-at-home Tree, Will you never take wing? Will you never break loose, And roam free Like a king?
