In Just-spring
John Cage
In just-spring when the world is mud-luscious
The little lame balloon man whistles far and wee
And eddie and bill come running from marbles and piracies and it's spring
When the world is puddle-wonderful the queer old balloon man whistles far and wee and betty and isbel come dancing
From hop-scotch and jump-rope and it's spring and the goat-footed balloon man whistles far and wee
