<quote>
We will meet at the midnight hour
</quote>

<quote>
past the tree stump forest.
</quote>

<quote>
We will be sneaky slinkies and walky-
</quote>

<quote>
talkies. Robin Hood’s woods would be so
</quote>

<quote>
proud. Merry boys and girls sing
</quote>

<quote>
carnivalesque ballads and awaken
</quote>

<quote>
the tree’s breeze--our back beat.
</quote>

<quote>
Tonight, we escape to sing songs with the animals
</quote>

<quote>
songs that none of us know the words to.
</quote>

<quote>
To night, the birds chirp out of tune
</quote>

<quote>
cats howl and dogs’ purrr-
</quote>

<quote>
fects the tone. We may never see
</quote>

<quote>
dawn, but for one night we danced unhindered
</quote>
