We cross the looks,
That we seek for,
The look of red berries,
That of purple blueberries.

The look of the princesses,
That of the white roses,
The look of peonies
That of the queens of meadows.

We cross the looks
That we deserve,
So much that of stinging nettles
Than that of the wild flowers.

"That of purple blueberries." . . . Ah Yann, those blueberries goes into my bowl of oatmeal every morning. Gotta love it.

Ah, know what you're talking about, my friend, and understand . . . kinda like "man" just can't leave things alone . . . especially something almost perfect as it is.
