Happy Birthday, Andy!

Give me a reason
to jump head over heels
for you for you for you
under lullaby moons
and blacktop suns

Tell me of a season
to write songs on a windmill
for you for you for you
where locusts land on barbed wire
and lovers speak in tongues

Move me from where I
leap off a moving elevator
for you for you for you
where lucky charms spill on sidewalks
and gypsy guitarists spin in magazines

Paint me on a kite too high
beneath parasols on blue hills
for you for you for you
as fisherman's boots wash on shore
underneath lavender skies of rain

Sail me on a trendy moat
with the pretty smiles on surfboards
for you for you for you
where short stories are on the breeze
and harmonicas are hidden in shoes
