I'm Made of bones of the branches The boughs and the brow-beating light
While my feet are the trunks And my head is the canopy high
And my fingers extend To the leaves And the eaves And the (bright?)
Might I shine? It's my shine (child?)
He Was a baby abandoned Entombed in a cradle of claim (clay?)
And I was a soul Who took pity And stole him away
And gave him the form of A fawn to inhabit By day
Bright Eyes, stay It's my day
And you Have removed this temptation That's troubled my innocent child
To abduct and abuse and to render, (bereft?) and defiled
But the river is deep To the banks and the water is wild, I will fly you To the far side
