So and so

I took the needles from the haystack
And broke the camel!s back
The straw dogs walked in the afternoon
In the land of the midnight sun
And soon
The pale terrapins were playing in the pond
And I saw that it was good
And their flippers shone
And Jeremiah stood
Under the parasol,
Because his song had sung out to sea gulls
And there were no words left
To
carry on
